Gung Hay Fat Choy!
We had a fun time celebrating Chinese New Year. The children had fun showing off their favorite pajamas and checking out their friend’s pajamas, coloring a dragon puppet, tasting eggrolls, and watching a video about the New Year(https://youtu.be/_u-R-aIq3_E ).
A big thank you to our friend Joanna and her mommy for our yummy morning snack of onut holes!
The children enjoyed looking at pictures of China. We saw pictures of food, animas, eating utensils, and buildings and structures. The children were surprised to learn that The Great Wall Of China can be seen from outer space!
We had a great time playing bucket toss in Jumpbunch class. Coach Leon brought in buckets, and bean bags for the children to practice tossing from different distances.
REMINDER
PAJAMA DAY IS TOMORROW!
We continued to work with our visual sense of color in the sensorial area. We matched cards with objects that are different colors with color cards they belong with. The children enjoyed matching the different objects and seeing the different shades of the colors.
Did you know that the Chinese New Years are marked by animals? We learned that this year is the year of the rooster. The children are excited to celebrate by wearing their pajamas to school on Friday.
The children had a good time doing yoga poses with Mr. Nick in yoga class this morning.
We continued to review the names of the seven continents as well as taking a closer look at the continent of Asia. We discovered that Asia has many countries, one of those countries is China. We will be taking a closer look at the country of China.
We worked with the color matching cards in the sensorial area. We matched different color cards to cards that had pictures of objects that were the same color.
The children had a great time in Soccer Shots this morning
Welcome back, we hope everyone had a great weekend!
Today we worked with the continent map. Do you know how many continents there are? We learned that there are seven continents and the continent we live on is called North America. We also learned that the largest continent is Asia.
Arts Alive has moved to the second and fourth Mondays of the month and music class has moved to Monday afternoons. We had a great time hugging, dancing, and tickling teddy bears, dancing with friends, and popping like popcorn with Ms. Wendy during today’s Arts Alive Pajama Party. We are looking forward to the cool songs and special visitors this afternoon in music class with Mr. Jason.
