Thanksgiving

It was a wonderful week here in the Monkey class. We were thrilled with the amazing turnout of all our special guests at the Thanksgiving Feast! We also took the time to share with each other about the different blessings in our lives and what we are thankful for this week.  Speaking of blessings,  we would like to acknowledge what an amazing blessing it has been to have Miss. Martin as our student teacher. She has developed such a wonderful relationship with so many of the children. We are so thankful to have had her in our classroom the last 17 weeks! Hope everyone has a Wonderful Thanksgiving with your families.

 

Thanksgiving and Blessings

It has been a busy week in the Monkey Class preparing for our Thanksgiving Feast! We have been working hard to make placemats, centerpieces and special accessories for Monday. We are soooo EXCITED for you to join us on this special day. We can't wait to share our "Turkey Dinner" song!

Fairytales

We had a fun week dressing up like characters from our favorite fairytales. 

Miss. Martin helped us act out the story of  Goldilocks and the Three Bears!

We loved playing on our NEW Playground Equipment!



Firefighters and Fire Safety

Our Monkey friends had a blast pretending to be firefighters this week. They loved dressing up like firefighters, "driving" our class fire truck in the classroom and singing our firefighter song. We also had so much fun during our stop, drop and roll and "put the fire out" circle times. It was a wonderful week!

We had a Going Away Party for Miss. Edler!

 

Feelings and Emotions

We had a fun week talking all about Feeling and Emotions. We made monster masks, explored slime, created monsters with different materials in our sensory table and went on a "Wild Things" parade. It was a great week!

 The monkey class worked hard learning about our Jack-o-lantern poem! 

Check your child's cubby for a fun take home activity.

Pumpkin Patch🎃

We had a wonderful week learning all about pumpkins!! We played who's hiding in the pumpkin patch, explored the inside of a pumpkin, and identified different shapes making jack-o-lanterns. And what a great way to end the week at the pumpkin patch:)

Monkey Apple Fun

 

 

We have had a fun week learning all about Apples! We had an Apple Market in our dramatic play area, figured out how many apple seeds old we are(check out our bulletin board), played pin the worm on the apple and had an apple foods taste. It was a great week!

How many apples tall are you?

                    We tasted different apple foods....apple butter, apple juice, apple pie and applesauce.

Our favorite apple treat was the applesauce...Yummy: )

We shot off apples using the catapult outside.

Monkey friends enjoying the beautiful fall weather!
