A Colorful Fall Week!

This week was a week of Firsts for the PreK 4's. We began writing and coloring in our journals and they have already become a valued choice during the morning and after lunch. The four year olds are beginning to work to be in the "group", and often when a gang is building there will be workers, observers, suppliers, idea people, and somehow it all comes together and everyone fits.
They've built a structure together with the hollow blocks that everyone could fit on, and had a long discussion about what it was. There were many choruses of "10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,blast off!" which seemed to indicate space travel.
We cooked, printed with, and polished apples. Our songs were about farms and harvesting and our favorites, apples and pumpkins.
