It's Autumn Time!

It's officially fall and we officially had a great week at preschool. The children searched for signs of fall, read about a silly squirrel named Earl, counted leaves, made place mats for snack time, gathered nuts, learned about catina cat- our zoophonics letter c, played, played and played some more, ran, jumped and hid under mounds of our own fall leaves. Welcome fall!
Kyler knows his colors so well and we all know his favorite is orange!

It may not have felt like fall outside, but inside we had lots of fun with our "leaves". They blew in the wind (thanks to a fan), got raked up and then of course jumped in.

Each student has started a journal where we capture some events of preschool. This week we included leaves we collected and our favorite fall colors.

Snuggly Storytime!

Gideon loves puzzles and is getting quite good at figuring them out.

Scampering squirrels came to preschool on Thursday. The children were more than happy to help them with their burrowing and seed hiding (one squirrel must already be hibernating inside).

The children are really finding their rhythm and are getting along and working hard at sharing (something that is extremely difficult for three year olds). I'm constantly amazed at how much your children already know. Thank you for sharing them with me!
