Great Start to a Wonderful Year

This week we had A LOT of fun getting to know one another and getting acquainted with our room.  The kids loved playing in housekeeping, sensory table, and music!







They also LOVED coloring with crayons, markers, and bingo dotters. They had both a coloring page and plain paper to be creative with, and they did an awesome job with both.






Playdough was another activity that the kids really enjoyed.  We had it out both days to really give those fine motor muscles a workout. 




In addition to exploring the room and meeting new friends, we did A LOT of work too!  This week our theme was "All About Me", so we made a self-portrait and learned about the 1st letter in our name.  We then stamped out letters and did hand over hand writing to write our name! 






These pages will be made into a class book for them to enjoy in the classroom for the year!

The children also learned a new song called "Rise and Shine"  it was a big hit and kept the kids at Carpet time for a few minutes at least :)




It was a great week with a GREAT group of kids, and I am so excited to see what this year may bring!
