Today we continued our theme of BUGS and introduced our shape of the month: OVAL!
{group #1}
In this small group, the children used their fine motor skills to stamp a variety of bugs on a mounted paper.
{group #2}
In this group, we discussed the difference between a circle and a square. I drew an oval and showed them what it looked like. We talked about various things that are an oval shape. The children each got a marker and practiced drawing ovals. This activity helps develop writing skills, as well as fine motor skills.
{group #3}
The focus of this group was number recognition. The children had to locate a certain number then slap it with a fly swatter.
