What are We Learning

Literacy

We will continue reviewing our alphabet with the letters D, E, and F. We will also be recognizing and spelling our names while “playing drums.” We will be doing a story sequence with “There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Bat” and rhyming with A Witch Has an Itch.”

Math

The children will be tracing shapes on dinosaurs, graphing colors using fish, and counting spiders and pumpkins. We will also make patterns with fall items.

Physical

For fine motor, we will be cutting dinosaurs, building bridges for elephants, and saving spiders using tweezers. For gross motor, the children will be fishing for letters, going on an elephant stomp, and playing Frog Jump. We will also be throwing “spiders” at a spider web.

Science

We will be making deer tracks in play dough and balancing elephants on bridges. We will also be finding bats in rice and making play dough monsters for sensory.

Social/Emotional

The children will guess whose animal footprint belongs to which animal and putting numbers in order with bats. We are also going to play “Erase a Letter Rhyme” and “Spooky Pokey.”
