Group Meeting: The cold and snow were definitely a topic of discussion today. Many children talked about the strong wind and blowing snow. I'm glad we all made it to school safely.
Story: The story for today was The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats. This is the story of Peter who wakes up to find that it has snowed over night. He puts on his snow suit and heads out to explore. He makes tracks, gets into a snowball fight, slides down a hill, and makes a snowman and snow angel. When he goes inside, he puts a snowball in his pocket to save for later. Ask your child to tell you what happened to his snowball.
Letter Learning: Ll
Small Groups: The children drew pictures of what they would do if they could go out into the snow.
Large Group: The children played musical chairs. When we play at preschool, we do not make a child sit out if they don't have a chair. Instead, we ask children to "share" their chair. It's so nice to see children say "come sit with me" or "I'll share with you".
Snack: The snack for today was blueberry bagels, cream cheese, juice, and water.
