P is for popping

There are so many words that begin with the letter P!  We had fun learning all about them in our Pajamas today!  

For Show-&-Tell Charlotte brought a Panda Bear, Brennan brought a Penguin, Connor showed us the Plane on his shirt and Anniston had a Pink Pillow and Poodle Puppy to share.

 Our theme for this week was Safety.  

Preschoolers practiced writing, dialing and memorizing their Mom's phone number.  They also learned that in Emergencies you can call 911.

 We also talked about daily things we can do to keep ourselves safe ... such as wear glasses, sunscreen, bike helmets, shoes, life jackets, etc...

 When driving in a car, it's important to buckle-up in a car seat. Taylee, Brennan and Connor are showing us the steps to do it correctly.

 We also talked more about classroom safety ... here are the preschoolers showing us how to correctly carry scissors when their finished with them.  Always walk holding the blade down in your hands and away from your body.

We then practiced some fine motor skills by cutting straight lines on paper.  Please continue to practice this important skill at home!

 In order to keep our heads protected and comfortable each preschooler stuffed their own pillow.

 We used our pillows as we watched a short video of the ABC's of safety.  Some of the things we learned were to never talk to or go with a stranger, stop-drop-and-roll in a fire, and look both ways before crossing the street.

Here's a picture of Connor as he helped to safely make our popcorn snack for our pajama party!

Hopefully we can all remember how important it is to be safe!
