It was a wonderful, if a little rainy, first week! We allowed plenty of time for playing so the kids could become familiar with each other. We also played a few get to know you games.
On the first day we read a book called "If You Take a Mouse to School" and then went on a scavenger hunt to find clues that Mouse left us. We went into all of the different rooms on the lower level and went outside to the playset as well. Fortunately the rain stopped for a while so we had about 15 minutes to play outside.
When we came in it was time to wash our hands and have snack. After that it was Activity Time. The kids enjoyed playing at the sand table, using glitter glue and beads to create an art project, playing make believe with our Weebles Village, as well as many other activities!
On Thursday, Mrs. Willer came in to help us. The kids enjoyed singing her some of the new songs they learned like our Snack Song, Line Up Song, Good Morning and Goodbye Songs. Ask your child to sing these songs to you!!
Mrs. Chyko worked with the kids at the paint easel as they created their first masterpiece at Maple Leaf.
Because of the rain, our parachute games were played inside. We made fast and slow waves and made it go up and down. When we sat on the parachute Mrs. Gould blew bubbles for us to pop!
