The theme for November is family and friends! Last week we learned about different types of families and who makes up a family. We read books about families and sang songs about the members of our own families. We discussed who can be in your family, where families can live and what families like to do together. During circle time we explored a few different mathematical ways to record and analyze information about our families. We made a Venn Diagram to find out how many of our classmates were only children, and how many friends had brothers and/or sisters. Kiddos were exposed to a bar graph to see their Place in Their Family. We discovered that we have more oldest children than younger children in our class and four only children and one middle child. We made glyphs (simple pictures to record and analyze data) to show "Who Lives in our House?". We sorted our glyphs to see who had brothers and/or sisters and how many people lived in our house. Preschoolers made paper bags houses illustrated with the member of their family. We made family trees by straw blowing paint and thumb printing leaves. We made our first class book called We Love Our Families where kiddos wrote and illustrated what they loved about their own family! A favorite interest area activity this week was the baby washing tub and changing table! We also had lots of time outside running races, making leaf soup, playing in the sand, snuggling Twig and enjoying our friends!
