Fun Times With New Friends

We are back and we are having tons of fun!  We are taking things slowly and learning all about each other.  We went into learning all about our monthly themes, letters, color, shape and number.  This month, we are learning:


All About Me                               Letters: A, B, E
                  Friends & Family                               Color: Red
                 Fall & Scarecrows                            Shape: Square
          Apples & Johnny Appleseed                        Number: 1

We kicked off the year reading many books and doing activities with them such as The Kissing Hand, Elmer, If You Take a Mouse to School, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and The Crayon Box That Talked.  The kids had so much fun listening to all of them and doing fun crafts and activities also.  

Our Elmer Craft we did:

The Kissing Hand Puzzles we made our parents:




Our Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Handprint Trees:


We jumped into Friends and Family learning all about our new classmates and talking about who is in our family.  We had fun with activities and songs all about these themes.  We also began doing a few activities about our letters and a keepsake for our parents!

We also did a few activities for fun involving all about ourselves, colors, alphabet and our first day!

I hope you all enjoy our fun crafts and activities we do in our Giraffe Class!  As we finish up the month of September with Fall and Apples, we will be sharing much more with you!
