This week in preschool was a review week so we talked about all five of our senses. We redid our Montessori based sensory activities that we have done over the last two months. It was fun for them to explore all of them again but they went through them pretty quickly. They know a lot about their senses now and they weren't interested in repeating anything for too long.
We did singing time with the aid of the kids' special brown blankies. Apparently wearing them on their heads made them sing and dance better. We used crocheted pumpkins to sing three little pumpkins. We also talked about the letter H for Halloween and our nursery rhyme of the week was "All The Pretty Little Horses."
The kids cut the letter H out with scissors. Actually, they just cut the papers into tiny pieces but I think it still familiarizes them with the shape of the letter and it helps them learn to use the scissors. We also learned how to walk with a pair of scissors safely.
We decorated cookies to celebrate the holiday a little bit.
We decorated foam shapes with glitter glue, fuzzy balls, feathers and paper. Then we made our traditional ghost footprints. They are a favorite every Halloween. I think they just like painting their feet.

Red Fish came home and made all of our projects and did all of the sensory activities.
Red Fish has been working on her ordinal numbers so we tried lining up Halloween characters in a line and saying the order. We have been fun with our spiders and Halloween erasers.
