Because we cannot go outside, we worked on our gross motor skills inside!
Gross Motor skills are important for major body movement such as walking, maintaining balance, coordination, jumping and reaching and throwing.
Pencils and crayons are not the only materials we use for pre-writing skills. The children were given M&Ms to work on fine motor skills by outlining the first letter of their name.
Reinacting real life in the dramatic play area is very helpful in strengthening socialization skills and respecting others.
The young 3’s counted at least 8!
We used 3 of our 5 senses to Taste, Smell and Touch!
We also discovered we can make pottery with “corn” meal!
The PreK class has been working hard on their big book this past week and a half. They were the authors and illustrators of the book, All About the Farm. They had a chance to read it to the Early 3’s class today after lunch and they did an absolutely wonderful job! Way to go!
Today we practiced the letter “M”!
“M” is for Mouse!
How many mice are in your Barn?
We practiced using our scissors today! This helps the child with their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
