The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah

The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah

Question of the Day

Ask your child about which apple they prefer!

Outside: (Notes: this was only in the morning class.  It was too hot in the afternoon!)

We painted cars and used shape sponges!

We made painted letters on the ground with paint brushes!  We all worked on painting the letter A.

Sensory:

We played in a bin that had shiny rocks, spoons, cups, and apple cinnamon oatmeal!

Centers:

Ants in my pants game! This game is pretty hard, but it's still lots of fun!

We cooked apples and other foods in the kitchen area.

We put food on our placemats during speech therapy.

Snack 

We tried red and green apples at snack today!  The students had to tell us where they wanted us to put their apples and water.  We have placemats that we use with either /k/, /s/, or /g/ sounds.  Let me know if you want some for your house!

Phonology Activity: 

The students had and an angry bird that they had to feed!  The catch was that the angry bird only wanted to eat things that started with "A"!

"N" Day in APPLE!

Today was "N" day in APPLE!  Talk to your child about the following activities they did today in school!

Book












"The Napping House" is a great book to read for sequencing, predicting, and action words!  It also has tons of /s/ blends to practice.  Read this book with your child and have them say "In the napping house, where everyone is sleeping" with you.

Sensory Activity

In our sensory bin today we had Nightcrawlers, which were real live worms in the soil! We talked about the correct way to hold the worms so that they didn't get hurt.  Only a couple of the kids actually touched the worms, but a lot of them watched the worms!

Centers

Ned's Head  is a hilarious game where you have to find all sorts of strange items in the big head!  Ask your child about what they found in his head (there are some pretty disgusting things in there)!

 This was a fun activity where a hidden "N" was found by coloring the big N's and little n's different colors!

 

The! students practiced requesting for big stars, little stars, or shooting stars by using their "good s" sounds!  Together they all made a beautiful night sky!


Phonological Awareness Activity

The students all helped the SLP figure out if words started with /n/.  Some of the words did, but some started with /s/, /k/, or /g/.  If it started with /n/ they circled the object, but if it started with one of the other sounds they crossed it out.  They then cut out the pictures that were circled and glued it on their big "N."

Dramatic Play

In our dramatic play area, we had different grocery items, bags, and receipts for the children to use. They all had environmental print for the students to "read."

Art

The students made Noodle Necklaces today in art.  Some of them made it for themselves, but several made it for their moms!
