The Lily Pad class was so busy floating from one activity to another this past week! The class learned about the different parts of a pumpkin and explored the inside of a pumpkin using their different senses. We counted the seeds and even measured different size pumpkins using unifix cubes. After a busy week exploring pumpkins, Gabby from Art Farm flew into The Lily Pad classroom on Friday with three different kinds of birds. The class was so gentle petting and holding the dove, chicken and parrot. The Lily Pad class also had a special visit from family members for Grandparent’s Day. The class had a blast coloring fall art pages, decorating pumpkins with stickers and markers, taking photos in the photo booth and singing fall songs. Ask your child what his or her favorite pumpkin activity was! Below is a song that the class learned this past week: I'm a Little Pumpkin I'm a little pumpkin orange and round I grow on a vine from a seed in the ground. When I get all group up, give me a face. Put me outside, in a very safe place!

Today the Lily Pad class had a fun filled Friday! The class had a blast fishing for letters in bins of beans. Some students even found the letters of their name! The class also completed the "pom pom challenge" and used their fingers with alligator tweezers to get all of their pom poms into cups. After working so hard, the Lily Pad class leaped over to the park for some movement and fresh air. We played in the sandbox, went on the swings, played tag, and sat on a bench together. It was a fabulous end to a short week! |
