Space Week

It was as cold as Mars as we continued with our space theme. We learned a poem this week called 5 Little Astronauts. The Pre-K's took turns holding one of the five astronauts as we recited the poem and performed the actions.

The Sun and the Moon

After singing the action song, Mr. Sun, we completed our Sun art this week by glueing our painted sun to paper and painting the sun rays with q tips.

We sang our zoom zoom song and read a book about the moon looking closely at the craters. The Pre-K's practiced their scissor skills cutting out the circle for the moon and further developed fine-motor skills by spreading and pressing during the making of our moon.

Dressing for the Weather

We had a great discussion about winter and the gear we need to keep warm. The Pre-K's did a great job recalling all of the warm clothing items we wear. They helped sequence the items in the order we dress in and we hung the visuals in our hall to remind us as we work on dressing independently at home time. It was too cold to go outside so we brought some snow in!

More outer space fun!

Science experiments, building with the Poddley, and playing in our gross motor corner with the trampoline and crash mat all made our Space Week a blast!
