In both the morning and afternoon preschool we celebrated Thanksgiving with a feast. The children helped prepare food, we talked about what we are thankful for, and we all sat down for a feast together. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

We have had so much fun with fall and farm activities in the toddler room this month. Lots of sensory experiences have been planned to help explore and learn. An apple peeler provided us with fine motor practice, yummy snack, and cute photo opportunity. Watercolor, glue, and other art mediums were provided to create fall foxes, scarecrows, and leaves. Old McDonald has been a favorite classic to sing and play with instruments. We discussed things that we were thankful for and talked about foods that families eat on Thanksgiving Day. We are so thankful for our toddlers and their families!
Foundational math skills are an important part of developing the minds of young learners. Matching is one of the most basic math concepts we teach in the toddler room, but a very important one! Matching, which usually involves one-to-one correspondence, can help a child to better understand that different items can still share characteristics, such as size, color, or shape.
In our leaf sorting activity, our little learners chose a leaf, told me the color, and matched it to the tree of the same color.
In Preschool we work on our names throughout the year. At the beginning of the school year we work on recognizing our names. After we recognize our name, we learn the letters used to build our name. Currently, we are learning how to form the letters in our name. We will continue to work hard until we can write our names on our own.
