What Are We Learning?

📚 Literacy

We will start the first week off with lots of name activities, including recognition. We will be learning the letters A, B, and C. The letter sounds will be introduced as well. We will also talk about words that start with these letters.


🔢 Math

The children will trace shapes with gems, put numbers in order on an alligator, bear patterns, and bear balancing. We will also sort cows and clowns by color.


🏃‍♀️ Physical Development

For fine motor, the children will be lacing alphabet beads, tracing their names, and using scissors to cut play dough. For gross motor, we will be going on a Color Hunt, tossing bean bags to apples, and playing a Cat Freeze Dance game.


🔬 Science

The children will explore in an Alligator Swamp, find bugs in “grass,” and build castles on the light table.


❤️ Social & Emotional

We will be playing a “Clap a Friend’s Name with Me” and “Alligator Claps” game. We will also be balancing bears while we have a relay.
