Y is for Yawning

We're already on the letter "Y"  --- where has the time gone?!?  

We came up with a list of words that begin with the {yyy} sound and the preschoolers wanted to act out Yawning!  Here's a fun pic of them!

For Show-&-Tell Taylee brought a Yo-Yo, Anniston and Liam showed us the color Yellow and Elle shared with everyone one of her favorite healthy snacks: Yogurt!

 We read a short paragraph and did a letter scavenger hunt to find all of the Y's in the story.

 Although Brennan's Birthday is in September, we celebrated it today!  We learned that his favorite animal is a horse, his favorite food is Vanilla Ice Cream and his favorite color is Green! Thanks for sharing some yummy snacks with us today:)

This month we are learning about Wild Animals and our Theme for today was Dinosaurs.  We started off by making dinosaur tracks in our play dough.  You can see that we had lots of different dinosaurs with different types of feet!

We went outside for a little story time and learned lots of neat facts about dinosaurs.

The preschoolers pretended to be paleontologist and started digging for dinosaur fossils.  They found 2, but unfortunately after much searching there are still 2 more buried in the sand pit that they couldn't find:).

We learned about dinosaur habitats and their homes ... and what some of the things were that helped them to survive.  The preschoolers were able to pick their craft today ... they could either make a dinosaur with spikes or they could create a dino habitat.  Here's a picture of the students hard at work and one of their final product.

Thanks for a fun day today!  See you all next week as finish up the alphabet with the letter Z!
