Directed Drawing:Turkeys Kinderpond Style

I did these directed drawings

within small groups.

I have two small groups. 

I drew a circle/oval in the middle of the paper.

Then I went around the table and 

had one child give me a color.

I drew the feathers that color.

Then around again for what kind of lines 

we should use to decorate the feathers.

Then we added the eyes, beak, waddle, and legs.

This child's photo is there if

you look very closely.

Here was group two:

Nutrition Centers Pt 2

 

We read Betsy Eats at a Sandwich Shop from Play to Learn Preschool

Then we brainstormed what we would need for a sandwich shop.

Then I brought out the bucket of food!

I got them at https://www.simplyspecialed.com/ but I can't find them anywhere :(

Halloween Counting Mats

When I use these counting mats 

(which come in a TON of themes!!)

I put dots by the numbers to help

 children who need help. :) 

I used googly eyes from Dollar Tree

This one uses ghost table scatter.

We are loving the spiders!

It is still early in the year, so I put little dots so they 

can count them to add that many spiders.

Eyeball jars the eyes are multi-colored.

We are going to work on our coloring skills.

Later we will cut them out along

with the brown stem and green leaf.
