Some of October centers

 

Here are some of our centers this week:

acorns from Learning Resources

I have two bins with them split up.

Match uppercase, lowercase, and item.

School Stew from Pocket of Preschool

Sneak Snacky Squirrrel

I have two games, so I put both squirrels into one bin.

Step one- print out materials on cardstock.

Graph from Glitter and Glue

Step two cut apart dice lol

Step 3 put graph in pocket and put cube pieces in fabric dice!

Make anchor chart with brand new markers? Yes!

It is still the beginning of the year, so we are still 

just gluing our smaller name cards.

We made bumps today.

I draw mine and the kids trace on top.

Some get it, some don't- and that is OKAY!

In their journals, I use my yellow highlighter, and they

"follow the yellow brick road" 

Remember these stickers???

I told you that I would need a reminder to use them!

During our calendar time, it has been a color of the day.

During journals, I am supposed to remind them to draw something that

is that color... so today, even though it was black day, we drew something that

was red. Then they got a red sticker!

October: Week 2 & 3 Morning Work

Here, I grabbed tongs, ice cube trays and pom-poms 

I put name mats down and had three different types of mini erasers.

Children used their pincer grasp to put mini erasers

on their names 

More mini erasers

I added the dots next to the numerals 

for my students still needing that extra support :)

These were supposed to be my leaves mini erasers...

I can't find them lol

I grabbed these acorns instead.

Told my students, my leaves blew away lol

I added red, yellow, and green bricks.

Everything from Dollar Tree.

Week three morning work-

well we had a random day off--

I am writing this so I remember why we had a day off,

the local district I teach for, was going virtual.

I teach in a partnership school.

I follow the district benchmarks and such,

but my classroom is located in a child care center.

I made the decision to stay face to face with my students.

Even though, I told my boss, my co-teacher and 

I were going to go and teach from a warm beach lol

We had only three days of school, 

so we only did three bins-

they were exactly the same lol

Tuesday~ 

we traced our cutting sheets with high-lighters and 

cut them out for our cutting sample for the month.

I am always "don't cut the "such and such thing"

either December or January is a mug.

So I am like "don't cut my coffee!"

The kids think it is so funny!!!

I put our scissor sheets and our monthly portrait sheets in my 

binder together for the whole year.

I know exactly where they are and I 

can pop them into our morning bins or during journals. 

Wednesday~

Self portraits

Thursday~

We cut our book orders and glued them

on our sheets.
