We started our morning work as soon as we came in from carpool. As you can see we had some friends working at puzzles, some coloring, others moving around our pompoms, and a few working with manipulatives.
We got busy at our centers quickly because even though it was a rainy day, we had lots to do! At Miss Kathleen's center we worked with letters. We used some hand punches to punch out our names and other "words" that we wanted to spell. This was also good practice in making our hand and finger muscles stronger. At Mrs. Hennessy's center, we did some fine motor work with our tracing. Many of us used the letters stencils to write our names. When we finished we worked at the lightbox. We had some new transparent shapes to stack and combine. We had dramatic play up on the rug today. We had the baby dolls out and it was a lot of fun to try on their different clothes.
Because we couldn't go out on the playground in the rain, we did a special indoor project. We decorated some little cookies, baked them, and had them for a treat! They were delicious and a nice way to finish off our salty snack of crackers!
