We had some big paper to color/write on at our fine-motor skills table this morning.  It was different from things we've done before!  We were also excited about our new crate of Halloween books. Some of us wanted to sit down and read all of them!  After we cleaned up our morning work, we took our bathroom break (You can see us in line in the hall with one of our friends holding the QUIET sign.) then came back for our Morning Circle.






We had a great time on the playground today. Some of us started playing Hide and Go Seek.  We forgot to pick someone to be IT, but that didn't matter!  We had a bunch of fun counting to 10, running and hiding, and then jumping out to start over again!  We also had our fire hoses out to play fire fighters--we love that!  On the way back inside we saw Paco the lizard near the doorway so we had to stop and say hi and tell him we were going in to have music with Miss Jenna.  (A couple of weeks ago, there was a lizard in the playground house that the class found and called Paco.  Since then we've seen lizards around a few times and every time they're sure it's Paco so they have to stop and talk!)













After music we had our centers.  At Miss Kathleen's center we added eyes to our handprint ghosts so we could bring them home, then we practiced counting (and following directions) with candy corn.  At Miss Paula's center we worked on fine motor skills by putting little pieces of yarn onto our gluey pumpkins.  While we waited for our friends to finish at their centers, we colored a Halloween picture.  At our rug center we got to play with our fire station again, but this time we had our big LEGOS to add buildings!
