2nd Day of School

It's only our second day of school and we are doing an amazing job at listening already.  

We talked about the name of our school and sang our school song.  I love that they are trying to sing along already. :)  Here's how it goes:

Climb up Sunshine Mountain

Climb, climb up Sunshine Mountain

friendly breezes blow.

Climb, climb up Sunshine Mountain

children learn to grow.

Smile, smile it's great to be here

new things we will try.

Climb, climb up Sunshine Mountain

you and I. 

We worked in our Rainbow Room again. Before we went in there, we sang our Rainbow Song.  

All the colors of the rainbow are so beautiful to me. 

All the colors of the rainbow are smiling down at me. 

There's red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple

Our children are working on what letter their name starts with.  Ask your child what their name starts with.  This can be a fun game where you can talk about what other words start with the letter of their first name. We also got to put stickers on them.  This was a great activity for fine motor practice. 

 Working hard on their carpet mats. 

 Mrs. Fleischmann giving lessons on our equipment. See aren't they great listeners?! 

 Each child has their own work box.  They find their name and put their work in it so they can take it home on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

 We love using scissors.  We are working on how to hold scissors properly and trying to cut on a line. If you don't have a pair of child scissors at home, you should get a pair. Your child would love to cut out coupons from the paper or cut out different shapes and have you guess what shape it is.
