CHILD center STARfish


O received his school pictures...I would say he is having a fun year as a starfish!  Here is the latest story of his day from his teacher, Miss Chelsea:



Talkative Thursday Families!

It has been an extremely talkative Thursday indeed! This morning we talked more about leaves and the colors they are in the fall. Miss Chelsea cut a bunch of leaves out of paper and showed them to us. We talked about the colors red, orange, yellow, and brown. Then Miss Amy took us out into the hallway while Miss Chelsea hid the paper leaves around our room. When she was all finished we went back into our classroom and went on a LEAF HUNT! It was so much fun! Once all the leaves were found we sat with the leaves on our circle rug and talked about the colors some more. We were very interested in our family pictures today. Miss Amy sat with us while we looked at all of our families. It was sure neat to see our friends' brothers, sisters, moms, and dads...even some pets, too! Then Miss Amy and Miss Chelsea showed us pictures of their families AND their puppies! We really liked seeing pictures of Miss Amy's dog, Daisy. The sensory table was open for us to play in this morning, too. It is full of the leaves we collected yesterday! The leaves were crunchy and we had a hard time keeping them in the sensory table. We just wanted to throw them all over the room! Today we read "We're Going on a Leaf Hunt!" which was so neat because we DID go on a leaf hunt today! Miss Chelsea also taught us a new song about leaves. We sang it three whole times! During outside time it was chilly and windy, brrr! We almost blew away, just like the leaves that were falling off the trees. When we came back inside we played with cars and trucks and drew pictures. Lunch was delicious again today! We had Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, peas, and peaches...it was yummy in our tummies! We all fell asleep on our cots really fast today...it sure has been a busy, talkative Thursday at school.


*If you'd like to sing the leaf song with your child at home it goes to the tune of "10 Little Indians"
  • 1 little, 2 little, 3 little leaves
  • 4 little, 5 little, 6 little leaves
  • 7 little, 8 little, 9 little leaves...blow them all away! WHOOSH!
Have a fantastic Thursday!
