Dear Birch Families,

This week the Birch class turned their attention to our healthy bodies.  During small circle, the children listened to the books, Little Yoga, Oliver’s Fruit Salad, The Vegetables We Eat and I Am Calm.  The children also got to paint with red and silver, sing the jump up and down song during small circle and practice pouring water in the work area.

During music with Ms. Kathleen, the children danced around the room with scarves to the horse song, played with the bells and listen to animal sounds.  The Birch class also danced to “We Are The Dinosaurs”, “The Goldfish Song” and we went on a bear hunt!

Practical life skills continued to grow by, moving pinecones with tongs, putting on jackets in the dramatic play area, scooping stars with a spoon, practicing lacing and painting with brushes at the easel.

The Birch class worked on their large motor skills by crawling through the tunnel, hopping on the bubble steps on the playground, zig-zagging through the small cones outside, and practicing going up the stairs and down the slide on the Birch playground.

Next week, we will continue talking about our healthy bodies!

Have a wonderful weekend! 

Ms. Mariah and Ms. Sarah
