This week in preschool #7

Preschool with friends started this week! We did some awesome activities, centered around farms and the letter P.  We sang "5 little ducks" and watched a Curious George about going to the farm.  We danced to Old McDonald and Perfect Piggies (Sandra Boynton).  We used our ribbon dancers and some maracas during music time.
 We made pig puppets.
 We practiced one to one correspondence by counting balls in an egg carton.
 We read some awesome pig/farm books and acted like farm animals.
 We sorted items by things that start with /p/ and things that don't (can you spot the things that start with /p/?)
 We had popcorn and pudding one day and animal crackers the next.
 We painted pigs with "mud" (well, 2 of them painted their pigs).
We played games with the pool noodle - learning about over and under.  And sang "1, 2 buckle my shoe".  Between getting ready for this preschool and the total lack of sleep I get at night, I kind of slacked off on the non school days.  Hopefully kids will start sleeping at night and I can start functioning during the day for more one on one preschool time!
