This month our theme was "Space." I love our space theme because we have so many fun things to do! I have some great children's books on space that we read and read again. We spent a week on planets, a week on stars, and a week on the moon. We completed some great art projects and even made moon phases with oreos.
We played planet memory and moon phase memory! We learned a new song about planets:
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Up so high, up so far.
The stars surround the planets eight.
We can name them ‘cause we’re great!
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars
Jupiter, Saturn, they are far.
Uranus, Neptune are the last.
The Solar System is so vast.
Whether they are big or small,
the Milky Way has got it all!
We continue to work on our regular curriculum each day, letters, numbers, shapes, patterns, writing, etc. We had some great worksheets this month to help us continue to work on counting, writing letters and numbers, completing patterns, and practicing CVC words. Each day in class during free play I am able to work with the girls one-on-one for a few minutes. We work on whatever they need need, depending on their current level of comprehension. I read simple books with a few of the girls and work on sounds and numbers with others. They are doing great! I love my class!
