Five Senses

This week our theme was the “Five Senses”. The children learned about each of the five senses and our week included a “Five Senses Nature Hike” through the woods behind SES!  (Check out our pictures by clicking on the tab at the top of the page).  We also continued to review shapes, colors and cutting on a line.  Our letter for the week was Yy.  

Next week our theme will be “Fall & Leaves’.  The children will be making a watercolor leaf, acorn, leaf booklet, fall trees and a pumpkin book.  The children will also bring home a fall memory game, which they can make & play with you!  We will even make a page for our first classroom book called Having Fun In Fall.  We will continue to work on shapes, colors, matching and counting.  Our letter for the week will be Ll.
