Down on the Farm

I can't believe September is coming to an end already!  So far this year we have learned about: Welcome to School, All About Me-The Five Senses, Families (including parents, siblings, babies, and grandparents), and last week we started Down on the Farm.  

Coming up:  Continuing Down on the Farm, Fire Prevention, and then Jump into Fall.

The class has really enjoyed our farm unit art projects!

The class has also loved playing in our sand and water table during our farm theme.  We change what is in the sand and water table every few weeks to go along with our units.  Last week we had corn and this week we have shaving cream "mud" and pigs!

I think that, for some of the class, the favorite farm theme activity has been dressing up like farmers and cowboys and riding their horses!

We have so much planned to do and I think the Preschoolers will all have a great time and learn a lot.   I will be going on maternity leave some time in October and my wonderful substitute will be Ann Engelman.  Mrs. Engelman has substituted for a maternity leave with preschool age students the last two years in a row and I know she will do an excellent job.
