Field Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday we braved the wind and cold to go on our field trip to Evan's Family Farm in Lehi. Sooo cold, but soooo fun! :)


Before we got started, we had to snap a few class pictures:







Then we fed the goats:

and went off to the hay-bale maze (tons better than a corn maze! Especially with preschoolers! :))



We also got to go on a wagon ride, pick a pumpkin and jump in the hay!



Look what we got to bring home!



It was cold, but we had a great time! Thank you to all our parent helpers!

Last Thursday we painted them, then yesterday it was time to add the arms and legs....




They turned out great! :) Have a great fall break everyone! Next Tuesday when we come back it is our field trip to Evan's Family Farm!

Dinosaurs with the 3 year old class

I feel like I always forget to blog about the three year old class...sorry! I really, really, really LOVE my 3 year old class this year! They are so super cute and well behaved. They are just the sweetest!



Last Friday we talked about the letter D and learned a song about donuts. We also talked about the number 5 and added 5 sprinkles to a pretend donut. I think the kiddos were craving donuts by the end of class! I wish I would have grabbed some for them- next year I will for sure! :)



We also watercolored some dinosaurs. The kids loved using the watercolors- they did a great job!




I love my three year olds! See you tomorrow! :)

Lovely Leaves



Last week we did a watercolor leaf art project... they turned out great!


We have been in school now for over a month, and everyone seems to be settling into the routine. The behavior in class has been so good the last few weeks- everyone has stayed on "green"! Thank you so much for letting me work with your cute kids- they always make my day better! :)

Hooray for Dinosaur Day!

Last week to celebrate the letter D, we had Dinosaur day!




We read lots of books about dinosaurs, did a dinosaur math page, watched a short dinosaur movie and made dinosaur footprint cookies.... what a fun day!






PS: we also had donuts on Wednesday for our letter "D" snack... sorry if the kids came home a little wired! :) (holy cow these kids are cute!!!)

4 year old class- Letter C week!

Wow... I am soooo not good at updating the preschool blog! I can't believe it has been 2 weeks since we had our "C is for Cookie" day!






The kids loved making their letter C cookies...I gave them a few extra chocolate chips to munch on when they finished their paper cookie!



So of course, the next day we had to make real cookies for snack time! Yum! :)
