Pumpkins!

5 Little Pumpkins

The Pre-K students worked on pre-literacy and pre-numeracy skills as we recited and acted out this Pumpkin poem. We practiced counting 1 to 5 as our five little pumpkins lined up. They did a terrific job saying their line when it was their turn. 


Fizzy Pumpkins




In this science/art activity, students observed what happens when we mixed baking soda and coloured vinager to make fun fizzing pumpkins. The Pre-K's painted the white mixture on the pumpkin then used a dropper (a great fine-motor task) to drop on the colours. Seeing our pumpkins fizz was so exciting!

Candy Corn Pumpkins




In another pumpkin art activity this week, we painted glue on candy corn and completed the pumpkin face design. This is another fabulous activity for developing fine-motor skills and eye-hand coordination.

Mission Impossible




An obstacle course was set up in the gym this week. The Pre-K's went under, over, and through to complete the course and save the world. It was a lot of fun! The Pre-K's were awesome ninjas as they worked on developing gross-motor skills and navigated the course.
