We started our week with another birthday celebration! We were happy to have Leon’s mom join us with treats and a dinosaur story (of course….dinosaurs are Leon’s absolute favorite!). Happy Birthday Leon!
Fall finally came in full force to North Carolina, and the Ladybugs were loving it this week! It is so much fun to shuffle through the crunchy leaves and throw them in the air! In the classroom, we made leaf rubbings and beautiful leaves to decorate a tree on our wall. We used markers on coffee filter leaves and then gave our hands a workout squirting the leaves with spray bottles to make the colors blend.
We read Wow! Said the Owl. Owl stayed up all day to see the colors of the world in daylight. At the end there was a rainbow, and we discussed how the primary colors blend in the rainbow to make new colors. We used our color paddles and color panels in the sand writing tray to experiment with color mixing.
We also talked about birds other than owls and matched birds to their nest of eggs. Most children recognized a robin or crow, but we discovered a cool bird called a cassowary that has bright green eggs!! Everyone liked those the best. Of course talking about birds at this time of year, we had to sing some turkey songs, too!!
At the end of the week, we began discussing Thanksgiving and created Thanksgiving placemats to bring home for your feast. Some of our friends have even been practicing carving the turkey!! 🤣
