Halloween Shapes!

By Miss Kerri Ann
We got into the holiday spirit today with a jack-o-lantern project.  We talked about the different shapes we used in this art project and learned a new song about pumpkins which focuses on learning directionals and oposites (up, down; high, low etc).  We all had a blast!

Also today, I worked with Georgia and Daniel on writing their names.  You can see the samples of thier work in the slideshow.  It's so fun to watch as three-four year olds progress in their ability to write their own names!  I'm so exctied to see these two showing so much interest in learning how to write!

After lunch we decided that we were cowgirls and cowgirls.  I transcribed this funny exchange between Grayson and Georgia when they were riding our giant stuffed horse together:
Georgia:  Welcome to the wild west!  Hop on back, I'll take you for a ride."
Grayson:  "You find me Elk?"
Georgia: "Yes!"
Grayson: "A bear! A bear!  That a monster!"
Georgia:  "Thank you for the ride"
Grayson: "Hold on tight!"
Georgia: "We fell down, Miss Kerri Ann.  I can't get up!  We fell down again!  How do we get up?"

This afternoon we will be heading to the Clark Store for thier annnual pumkin carving/ painting gathering.  What a fun day!
