Wow! What a fun fall 4K is having! October has been full of fun fall activities. We began our month by talking about animals in the fall. We made a special snack to share with squirrels and practiced our cutting skills by snipping squirrels’ tails. We made acorn suncatchers to add some color to our windows and took a trip to cozy nook farm!
At cozy nook we fed cows and goats, took a hayride and chose our very own pumpkin to take home. What a fun day!
We focused on fire safety learning what to do if we have a fire in our house (don’t hide go outside), who to call if there is an emergency (911), and what to do if our clothes catch fire (stop, drop, and roll). We created fire trucks from paper shapes and imagined what it would be like to be a fire fighter. This week we will have a special visit from the fire department. They will show us their gear. It might look scary but we know fire fighters are here to help. We also get a chance to see the fire truck and maybe even watch a fire fighter climb the ladder.
We are wrapping up the month with a unit on pumpkins! We opened up a pumpkin and scooped out the insides. We made pumpkin bracelets, learned how pumpkins grow and played some fun pumpkin games!
We are looking forward to our bug bash next week and many fun learning experiences in November!
