This week we focused on the letter Pp. we talked about the sound the letter Pp makes and words that begin with the letter Pp. We came up with popcorn, pig, pizza, pajamas, and pretzel.
On Tuesday, we colored our Pp page while we waited for our friends to get there. We focused on the theme of pizza. For morning centers, we made “pizzas” by following a “recipe’ card, matched our ABCs with a pizza theme, did a pizza creative writing, and traced/wrote the letter Pp. Then we got our wiggles out before lunch by dancing to “Danny Go”. After lunch, we colored a pizza color by number and finished our cow handprints from last week. At the end of the day, we finished our pizza color by number and played with our friends.
On Wednesday, we got to wear our PJs to school!! For start-up, we practiced tracing/writing our first names while our friends arrived at school. After, big room time and bathroom break, we got to go into specials with the five all-day teachers. The kids seem to like rotating between the four classes. For Mrs. Aimee and Mrs. Brandi’s special, we talked and did a couple of science experiments dealing with rainbows. Then we went into our morning centers. Here we made numbers with pop-its, made our ABCs in our sand boxes, did the Pp maze and found the letter Pp, and built with Legos. After lunch, we did our Pp says /p/ page. At the end of the day, we got to watch the movie Spookley the Square Pumpkin and ate puffcorn with Mrs. Leslie’s class.
On Thursday, we had our fieldtrip to the pumpkin patch. It was a great day, and we had lots of fun!!! It was great seeing all the families there.
Until next week,
Mrs. Brandi
