Blog for May 22 and 24

Image result for ice cream

Ice cream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! No, I didn't teach your kiddos that poem this week, but we are playing with ice cream this week! And the letter Ii.

Table activities include ice cream cone printing, playing with cotton ball ice cream and on Thursday, weather permitting, our morning table time will be outside playing ice cream shop with baking soda ice cream.

Small group activities are counting and gluing on scoops of ice cream on our cones and on Thursday we will make ice cream.

KDIs for the week are-

Number words and symbols: Children recognize and use number words and symbols.- Numbers are counted and identified daily.

Counting: Children count things. -Counting scoops and sprinkles and worms and friends!

Jesus Time- In this week's Jesus time, we review the stories we have heard throughout the year and talk about how Jesus is our good shepherd.  We are the sheep, sometimes not very smart, moving along as a group, sometimes we leave those in trouble behind, we go places or do things that can get us into trouble, just like sheep. I talked about seeing a herd of sheep being chased by wild dogs, the sheep didn't fight, just left the weaker ones behind and ran away. Jesus comes are chases off the dogs and helps those in trouble. He leads us in the right way to go, places that are safe that will keep us close to Him. He goes to great lengths to save us, even giving up His own life! What a shepherd we have who will never leave us or forsake us!

Books of the week are- "Curious George Goes to an Ice Cream Shop" by Margret and H.A. Rey and "Bear Counts" by Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman.

This Friday is Literacy Night! Come read in a hammock or in a tent. Pick out some different books, get information on Summer Reading programs at your local libraries and have a snack! From 6:30-8:00 pm.

The four year olds are having their graduation ceremony on Wednesday, May 30th at 6:30 pm. Threes are not required to be there, but are certainly welcome to come!! It should take about an hour, including cake and punch!

Have a fantastic week!
Mrs. Schneck
