H is for Halloween
Monday: During circle time we read “Room on the Broom.” The children counted each character that rode on the broom. The two-year-olds worked on matching the shapes by matching the triangle witch hats to the triangles on the orange paper. The four-year-olds worked on mastering their pronated grip and writing the capital letter H. They also reviewed all the previous letters.
Tuesday: During circle time read “Runaway Pumpkin.” The children used flashlights to create “ghosts.” They shined a flashlight through different objects to see if a shadow would be created or the light would pass through. The children used their gross motor skills to do som “pumpkin” bowling. Using costume dressed ducks as our pins, the children took aim before rolling their “pumpkin” to knock down the ducks.
Wednesday: During circle time we read “Ten Timid Ghosts.” The children used their fingers to sing the finger play song along with the book. Using their fingers as the ghosts subtracting one each time as host ran away. The children explored objects in water. Before placing different objects in water, the children predicted if the object would sink or float.
Thursday: During circle time we read “Mr. Happy Pumpkin.” The children sang the song “Five Little Pumpkins.” Using their hands as the little pumpkins each sitting on the gate. The children created their letter H page for their ABC book. Using orange paint to create their pumpkin as H is for Halloween.
Friday: Free for all Fun Friday.
