Carrots are a root vegetable. They grow in the ground and need to be pulled out. Carrots come in different colors such as orange, purple, red, white and yellow.
At Circle Time, children make a list of animals that eat carrots. During the Healthy Carrots, Community Challenge preschoolers participate in a group activity that builds healthy eating awareness by discussing what foods are healthy and how food helps our bodies.
For Creative Art time, preschoolers create a carrot puppet by cutting their own unique carrot shape out of orange paper and then decorating it.
Feed the Horse Roll encourages children to match the Carrot Letter after rolling the cube, identifying the photo and then "feeding" it to the horse! And such a handsome horse he is!
Continuing with math, patterns are the focus with carrot and corn pictures, creating an AAB pattern.
Today's suggested story is The Carrot Seed by Ruth Krause.
“Workin’ on the Farm,” is the song of the day. During Music & Movement children work to harvest simple fruit and vegetable shapes around the room, identifying numbers on the shapes. Listen to this fun country-inspired song: https://youtu.be/mT8lhppiknw
