Orange and blue days

Making Orange playdough creations.





Playtime!


We went on a "T" treasure hunt. Each envelope held a picture clue to help find the next clue. In the end we found Tootsie rolls and counted the "T"s on the wrapper (after eating of course).

Tearing and glueing orange paper to make our orange pumpkin page for our color books.


We had quite a block road/structure built by some of our boys.



Juicy oranges and crunchy goldfish for our orange snack.


We were lining up to play outside and I told them to put their faces where I could see them.


They had quite a parade going for awhile.



Knock, Knock!


Playtime on Blue Day.



They like to bring Grandma Porter books to read to them.


Reading Time!



We read Blueberries for Sal and made and ate blueberry muffins for snack time.




We read a story about Columbus who sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred ninety two. During the rhyme we learned we snap our fingers while we say the Nina, the Pinta, the Santa Maria. It was fun to watch them try to learn to snap.



Boys show and tell time.





Making and displaying our blue boats on our blue oceans for our color books.



The playhouse is a favorite for outside playtime!

First Day of Preschool - The Little Engine That Could

Here they are for the first rug time. Aren't they cute with the train name tags that they made?




For snack time they made celery train cars carrying pb or cheese with banana and pretzel wheels.




We made a human train while we sang Down By The Station.
