Hickory, Dickory, Dock, the mouse ran up the clock, the three year olds have just begun learning nursery rhymes, what fun!
We are talking about nursery rhymes this week.
Table activities are sensory bins this week- Humpty Dumpty, Itsy Bitsy Spider, I'm a Little Teapot and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star are represented.
Some KDIs we are concentrating on this week are-
Phonological awareness: Children identify distinct sounds in
spoken language- Rhyming words and sounds especially this week.
Book knowledge: Children demonstrate knowledge about
books.- As we read more books, which are true, which are stories, which are poems. They "read" them by themselves.
Jesus Time-We are listening to the story of Palm Sunday this week. This Sunday, April 9th, is Palm Sunday. We celebrate Jesus entering into Jerusalem on the back of a donkey which signifies peace. He came to bring peace between God and man by his sacrificial death on the cross. We talked about how the people shouting "Hosanna" were the same ones shouting "Crucify Him!" on Friday. Thanks be to Jesus that he continued on his journey to the cross for us.
Books of the Week- "The Itsy, Bitsy Spider" by Iza Trapani, "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep" and "There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe" both by Jane Cabrera. Mother Goose, of course!
Have a terrific week!!
Mrs. Schneck
