This week our class will finish up Pizza week with pizza- making on Tuesday and adding toppings to our paper shape pizzas. We will continue having our pizza restaurant center for some open ended play and practice with serving and ordering with one another. 2K will Celebrate Read across America day with some short Dr. Seuss favorites like Hop on pop and Mr. Brown can Moo can you? We’ll make thing 1 and 2 with our handprints, but number them for each child in the class. We can have fun putting them in number order together then. One of our activity stations for the week will be simply reading with myself or one of our aides. It’s fun to watch and observe what happens when one of the adults sits with a book in the cozy reading area. Little by little some start coming over. I will get out some familiar books so I can invite the children to “read’ what is on a page.
2K will also read the story of Jesus’ miracle of feeding the 5000. from last week We will learn the Bible words “Give thanks to the Lord for He is good.”( 2 thumbs up action) Psalm 107:1 ,and use it in a simple response litany. I say something we are thankful for and they respond with that verse. I invite you to try and use it as a meal/bedtime prayer in the next coming weeks.
The class did an amazing job walking together around the school last week and delivering the happy “2’s day” notes we colored. We saw some new places and faces,and had fun!! I really wish I had gotten a few pictures to capture it.
