Mrs. Kelli’s Preschool Classroom
This week, we focused on the color orange & went to the Pumpkin Patch!
Books we read:
Pumpkin Trouble
Centers this week:
We mixed yellow & red water with eye droppers to make the color orange
We had fun picking pumpkins out of an orange sensory bin
We colored different sized & shaped pumpkins
We did a color sort, using tweezers & picking up pom poms
We decorated mini pumpkins
We cut orange play doh with scissors
We colored a picture of a jack o’lantern
We practiced tracing/writing our names
We matched our ABC’s on the magnet board
We counted to 2, using jewels
In art time, we did our farm following directions project. We do this twice per year to test color recognition & your child’s ability to follow a given direction. We will do this again in May to compare!
Important Notes:
We had a FANTASTIC turnout at our Culver’s fundraiser! We are so very appreciative of our ABC families for supporting us this way . It was so nice to see you there & get to chat outside of school. Thank you SO MUCH!

Out Kregel’s Pumpkin Patch field trip was so much fun! We are so thankful for the good weather & hope that everyone had as much fun as we did!

Remember-next week, we are having our Harvest Parties! Please drop your child off at the REGULAR school time IN COSTUME. If possible, please have them use the potty at home prior to going to school. We are hoping to take them to the potty on as “as needed” basis that day, as costumes can be a challenge to get up & down. Thank you! All parents are welcome to come to the party, even if you weren’t specifically asked to be a “helper”. You should have received a note home letting you know the specific time of your child’s party.
Until Next Week,
Mrs. Kelli
