Did you know a leaf has a job?
We learned that a leaf makes food for the tree called chlorophyll, which gives the leaf its green color. We also worked on a Fall Leaves art project. The children were excited to use q-tips to paint the leaves. Take a look at their art work displayed in the classroom.
The children were excited to discover that we have a donation for our food drive!
Did you know a leaf has two little leaves that are part of it?
We worked with the leaf nomenclature lesson and learned the names of some of the parts of the leaf: blade, margin, veins, petiole, and stipules. The stipules are two small leaves that are on the petiole( a little stem on the leaf). We also read the book “The Leaves on the Trees” and had fun singing the song.
Coach Lean brought a fun game to practice our balancing. The children had a great time.
Today we read the book “Why Should I Listen” about a boy named Joe who discovered he missed out on things, got lost, and sometimes got in trouble when he did not listen. He also did not like when no one listened to him. The children enjoyed the story and decided that they would try their best to be listeners.
The children had a good time breathing and stretching in yoga and enjoyed singing in chapel.
Please take a look at the sign posted on our classroom door about a food drive. Our class would like your help in joining with the Primary II class in collecting non- perishable foods benefiting the East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry
The children were very excited to share stories about their Halloween night adventures. The children shared stories about trick-or-treating, passing out candy, looking at costumes, and even going to a Haunted House! They are all eager for next year!
On circle we said “good-bye” to the month of October and “hello” to our new month November. We talked about some of the activities for the new month and also looked at some of the new books in our library.
The children had a fun filled day! We decorated foam jack-o-lanterns, colored paper puppets, played pin the eye on the monster, listened to Halloween music, and even worked on a Halloween counting worksheet.
A big “Thank-you” to everyone who helped make our day so fun. The children enjoyed all the delicious snacks and cool treats.
