This week at Keeginaw Preschool we enjoyed more insect identification. We enjoyed several renditions of the “Hungry Caterpillar” story, including a felt version. The children enjoyed listening to the story and waiting for their turn to place the felt pieces on the board. We played more Insect Bingo- the children sit, listen and look at the teachers, and then scan their Bingo cards for the matching insect (some can be tricky like the wasp vs the bee).
Stuffy/Teddybear days were a lot of fun. The children ensured their stuffies followed the class rules, playing nicely with the other children and their stuffies.
We also talked about camping as many families are away for the long weekend. How do we camp (tent/trailer/vehicle). Fire safety, walking in the woods, playing by/in water (always with a grownup!).
Today we had Alyssa (from our afterschool program) in the classroom. She brought in some real live caterpillars for the children to have a close look at. For many this was the first time they have ever seen one. We can’t wait till they are butterflies!
This week was the letter X.
