Dying Eggs at Elm Park

Dying Eggs at Elm Park

October 15-19 & 22-26

Here is the big catch up on blogging!!

The past few weeks have been busy and gone fast at Elm Park.  Our themes have included: Halloween activities, apple orchards, apples, the colors green and brown, the numbers 3 and 4, the shape of the rectangle, and Johnny Appleseed.

The Eagles started their book "Go, Go, Go".  They've completed the book and are reading it daily.  They completed their journals, which reflected all monthly themes up to this point.  They completed a tree project, creating a trunk with fall colored leaves glued on.  They've been practicing writing their names.  They've made apple crafts, have worked on identifying numbers 1-10, and have completed a few pumpkin crafts.  We talked about -ad words (sad, mad, bad, rad, etc.).  We talked about Johnny Appleseed and made a little Johnny doll.

The Hawks made spider webs, created magic wands, and colored a spider sheets.  We talked about Johnny Appleseed and made a little Johnny doll.  The kids explored in the rice bucket, created an apple core project, and worked on fine motor skills while coloring and squishing play doh.

We all enjoyed a trip to the Pumpkin Patch.  The highlight was the hayride on the tractor, waving to scarecrows!

Parents, please send me pictures of the Pumpkin Patch so I can post them online!  Emailing them to me would be great...
