We are off to such a wonderful beginning! I am having so much fun getting to know your children. We will continue to talk about Fall for the next couple of weeks, including pumpkins, gourds, spiders and leaves.
I am focusing on fine motor strength and coordination right now, with many of the activities geared at strengthening our pincer grasp to help us get ready to write. Some activities you may notice are, playdough, lacing, legos and in sensory bins there are tongs for the children to pick up items to place in a bucket. I will begin to work closely with the 3-day class for the children to be able to form the letters in their names.
We will also be working on “Greetings” and how we respond when people say hello to us or goodbye to us. This is an activity that is also used when we discuss “Filling up our Buckets”. As always, if you have any questions about any of our activities, please give me a call J
Thanks so much for sharing your children with me!!!
