Friday’s Field Trip to the Children’s Theater was a blast! From swinging monkeys to a jungle full of singing animals, the Taft Theater’s production of the Jungle Book did NOT disappoint. This is one that will not be forgotten! I can’t wait until next year to see what productions that will have to offer.
We learned all about crabs today! Our focus was on the Red Crab that travel to lay their eggs in the ocean. We watched a video clip showing the thousands of crabs making the trip to the ocean and doing their “egg laying shimmy.” We practiced our very best sideways crab walk and a little egg laying shimmy. Ask your pre-ker to show you! We then read a fun book by Ruth Galloway called Clumsy Crab. Ms. Lori helped us make our very own Clumsy Crabs to add to our classroom decor.
The children were introduced to 3-D shapes this month: Cube, cone, sphere, cylinder. They reached into the mystery box and used their sense of touch to identify the attributes of the shape inside and ultimately the name of the shape. They did a wonderful job!
After reading out reading group book, Can You See the Skunk?, we found the sight word stamps that matched the words in our book. Then we stamped them on our paper and wrote the words.
