From the Teachers: April 28, 2017 3’s/4’s Program We talked about and reviewed letters Nn, Oo, Pp, Qq and Rr and played our I spy game to find the letters within the text of our poems. We have been working on counting to 100 by 1's, 5's and 10's, most of our students have this mastered! Students have been enjoying lots of outdoor play, and this week we practiced moving like farm animals to help us get our wiggles out. We created muddy pig art, footprint cows, chicks in eggs and fingerprint sheep. Students have also been practicing their sign language alphabet, and most can sign all of the letters as well as "next time won't you sing with me." We have also learned to sign and sing "Jesus Loves Me." On Friday we had a cooking experiment. We poured heavy whipping cream into a jar and shook it until we made our own butter! We had mixed reactions to our homemade butter. Six students liked it but 4 did not. We are hard at work practicing for our Mother's Day program as well as our graduation program. Please be sure to check out the quilt that is displayed in the PreK 3/4 classroom, we will raffle this quilt off at graduation. Notes and tickets will be sent home soon! This week in bible lessons we used our devotional and learned the following lessons: Monday – Worshipping together is good - Psalm 122:1 Tuesday - God wants to make you a new person- 2 Corinthians 5:17 Wednesday - Deuteronomy 30:20 Tells us to love the Lord your God…for He is your life! Thursday - God encourages us to ask him for help with planning - Proverbs 16:3 Friday - God never changes- Malachi 3:6 2’s Program This week in the two's room we talked about farm animals. And every day we acted like a different animal when walking to the sink to wash our hands! The kids loved acting like cows, sheep, horses, pigs, and chickens! On Monday we made cow faces with paper plates, on Tuesday we played outside and acted like all of the different animals you find on a farm. On Wednesday we made handprint roosters, on Thursday we made fingerprint sheep. On Friday we got to watercolor our own farm animal paper then Mrs. Galloup brought some animals from her farm! We got to pet her dog, Cooper, some chickens and chicks, kittens, and even a potbelly pig! The kids loved being able to see and pet them! Our Bible story this week was from the Pray and Play Bible 2 - Daniel and His Friends Next week we will be talking all about gardening and bugs.
