Our Teddy Bears,
the two's ...
We started off October talking about the changes we see happening in the
Fall.
Like the leaves changing colors & falling off the trees.
Then we talked about "Fall on the Farm."
While continuing to talk about the Fall, we also talked about animals we
see on the farm.
The children learned that cows give us milk. Also, we played "Tape the
Tail on the Horse."
Later we talked about Transportation & how we get to & from places.
Most of us take a car to school! The we learned about our 5 senses;
touch, smell, hear, sight & taste.
Our favorite day was when we got to taste lemons & make lemonade!
Lastly we celebrated Halloween, by making carving a pumpkin, making
haunted houses & hand print ghost!
Also, we got to go trick-or-treating to our neighbors! What fun!
Next month we will start to talk about Thanksgiving & learn some new
words like "Pilgrim" & "Indians."
