Thurs Mar 29th- Easter party & Easter egg hunt

Our class started the day with scissor practice and then the students played with big blocks, animals, an Easter bunny puzzle and some Easter activities at the table. I pulled the students aside to practice printing the letter W- upper and lowercase. Anothony helped the class review their colors and shapes and we counted to 31 wiggling like worms. The class also practiced our Spanish counting to 9. Our class reviewed the date and sang our calendar and weather time songs. At letter time we boogied to the ABCs and practiced the letter W song. I reviewed some words that begin with W and then we had our wiggle song. Snack time was fun because we had our snacks from Anthony and also they could pick out an Easter cookie and color frosting from me. After we ate, we looked at books and then Anthony shared his show and tell. For our lesson, I read the students two books- Clifford’s Little Blue Easter Egg and Easter Babies- a counting book. They enjoyed each one. We talked about some things that their families do at Easter. After that, each child wrote their names on their white paper bags to be used for our Easter egg hunt. Then I gave them a bag of stickers to decorate their bags with. I collected those for our hunt and cleaned up. After that we colored our W worksheet that we had completed earlier. We also sang our W song and I gave each child their w stamp on their hand. To review our color words, the students had to “read” the words to know what color to color their eggs. We cleaned up and then walked to the park to for our hunt. Thanks to our parents who helped with this!! The kids had a fun time finding their eggs. After our hunt, I allowed each child to pick a cookie and color frosting to decorate with. They enjoyed these along with all of the other treasures of the hunt.
