Thursday

Today we learned about our helper chart.  In our classroom we have a calendar helper, line leader, and snack helper.  Our calendar helper  helped us read the day of the week, recognize our shape(circle), and read our nursery rhyme for the month(Rub-A-Dub-Dub). The children listened to the story Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes.  We also read the rhyme "One Lonely Bus Driver."
One lonely bus driver all alone and blue
He picked up a passenger and then there were two.
Two people riding, they stopped by a tree
They picked up a passenger, and then there were three.
Three people riding, they stopped by a store
They picked up a passenger, and then there were four.
Four people riding, happy and alive,
They picked up a passenger, and then there were five.
Five people riding open swung the door
Four passengers got off the bus,
The driver's alone once more.

During play time we are working on taking out only the toys we are using verses dumping out the whole tub of toys on the ground.  I must say the children are doing a great job in this area.  We are also working on cleaning up old toys before we take out new toys.  This is a little harder to grasp, but we will keep trying.
