As we came into the room this morning, we went to our tables to do some of our morning work. We chose from puzzles, unifix cubes, pegboards, coloring, and cutting. Once carpool was finished, we came up on the rug, said good morning to all of our friends, and learned a song called Classroom Rules.
Then we all went to the bathroom and took a bathroom break. We came back to the room and went to our centers. We all got a chance to do each of the different activities, but we had to take turns. Some of us started with Mrs. Hennessy making our September placemats, others started at Miss Kathleen's center where we painted with paint rings, and the rest of us first played with our big building materials up on the rug.
It was finally time for our playground break! We had a great time walking back and forth holding onto our classroom rope and an even better time playing with all of our friends out on the playground. After we came back inside and washed our hands (and took another bathroom break!) we had our snack. We practiced using our manners to ask for pretzels and Cheerios and refills on our water.
It was just about time to go home, but first we all came back to the rug to choose a book from our ABC crate, have a story, and sing a few more songs. Some of us were so tired that we were trying to nap on the rug! It's tough being a 3!
Classroom Rules
(tune of Frere Jacques)
Listening ears, looking eyes
Quiet voices, quiet voices (whisper)
Helping, helping hands
Walking, walking feet
Classroom rules, classroom rules!
