This week we continued learning about apples and had some fun using apples to make apple prints.  We talked about which color apple they like best and sorted them by their color.  
We also learned that A is for Alligator!  We used water colors to paint pictures of other words that start with the letter A.  
During our morning activites, kids explore with different  manipulatives. This week they had  fun seeing who can make the tallest tower!
We also started centers this week with our other Nursery friends.  One activity we did was play "Don't step on the lava"!  It was fun to jump from shape to shape without touching the floor.  It was a great week!

The children explored the classroom and played with some of the toys.  They colored a first day of school picture.  They had snack and did some dancing. We are off to a wonderful start!

It is hard to believe that this year is quickly coming to and end.  The past few weeks we have been very busy finishing up with the letters Y and Z, reviewing our shapes, and creating patriotic crafts for Memorial Day and 4th of July.  We have also been very busy practicing for our Nursery Graduation on Monday, 6/14.  The children are so excited to perform in the "big show" and show off their special singing talents.  We can't wait!
On the last day of class, we colored a picture like we did on our first day of school to show how much we have grown!

              We had a busy and fun week in N-3!
We started off our Monday with some parachute fun!
We practiced our colors by picking a colored bean bag out of the bucket and searching around the room for something of that color.  We also were introduced to the letter L. 
Later in the week we read Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?  Then we made our own Polar Bears and did some sequencing using pictures from the story.
We also love using our smartboard, especially during our morning circle time.  We love "creating" our special helper of the day.  This month we are building a snowman.  The kids love to pick silly hats and arms!
