Earlier this week we read “There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly!”
Then we made an old lady puppet and animals to retell the story.
Everyone loved feeding the old lady!
Sensory bags are so easy to make, and the kids love them! These bags are filled with purple gel and spiders to match our spider theme. To make it, you can fill any size sandwich baggie with hair gel then add food coloring and squish it all around. Next, add items of your choice such as glitter, confetti, or small objects. But the fun doesn’t have to stop there. You can make sensory bags with many different materials.

As September comes to an end, so does our transportation theme. What better way to end our theme than with trains? Everyone in class really enjoyed our stories “Freight Train” and “I Love Trains!” Later we created our own train! We had so much fun chugging along the track. We also watched a short video called, “The Train Colors Song.” You can check it out at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwlMvE8qeoY.
Inside the classroom we have lots of trains to play with.
