H is for Halloween!!

Tuesday we did the letter H and did a lot of things for Halloween. I was in charge of calendar so I read three books: Little Monsters, Halloween has Boo, and 10 Little Monsters, the kids really loved them! Then we did worksheets and music time. For music time we did a song called Tutti-Ta! and it was really funny, the kids looked really cute doing it. Then we made ghost for the craft and i hung Landen's outside with all of the other Halloween decor!

P is for Pumpkins and painting

Okay so friday I had a cold and so we only did part of preschool together, and did the worksheets seperately so no one would have to come in my house and get sick!!! So we did the letter P and decided it would be a good time to take a field trip to the pumpkin patch and then we did a paint project outside. Here are the pictures, but i am highly disappointed because the last time i went to the pumpkin patch my friend megan took the pictures and they were amazing, these...well they get the job done i guess. PS funny story about the pumpkin patch, they had a little turkey thing running around free and landen decided it would be fun to chase it around, until it decided to turn and charge at him!!!

A is for Apple!

Two of my friends and I have been doing a mommy and me preschool for a couple of months now and i am just now getting around to blogging about it. So instead of going back and reliving all of the letters that we have covered, i am just going to pick up with today and try to update it on Tuesdays and Fridays, which are the days that we meet. As a general run down of what we try to do each time, here is a schedule that we loosely go by:
Calendar Time (Days of the week, Months of the year, and intro to the letter of the day)
Worksheets (Letter of the Day, and their Names)
Music and Movement
Game
Craft
Review (Calendar and Letter)
So today's letter was A, so we did A is for Apples! There are so many things that you can do with apples!! The games today was bobbing for apples and for the craft we did caramel apples, yummy!! Here are some pictures documenting our work!!
Okay so i have no idea why joe-joe's head is half cut off, but i have a friend that is teaching me how to do some stuff with my blog so i will see if she can help me fix that.
