Day 9  Our number box is almost full.  Mrs. B told us that only 9 straws can fit in the ones box.  We will have to do something about that on Day 10.

We found a basket of bells in the science center this morning.  They all sound a little different.  There were a lot of sounds coming out of the sound studio, too.  Add those things to our new instruments we made and we had plenty of sounds going on in our room today.  So, you can guess that we are talking about the sense of sound this week.

We have a new math game.  We counted nuts into the 6,7 and 8 boxes today.  You are always welcome to come in and have your kids show you what they are doing.  We are getting really fast at our number floor puzzles.  We will have play pennies in our play center so we can start counting them out.

We are finishing our review of abcs this week.  We are matching up capitols and small letters at our map and in our abc games and also at our writing table.

After all of this,  the kids prayers at the end of the day are in thanks for the chance to play together.  As an early childhood educator,  that sounds good because they are learning in their play and all their interactions and still getting the education I try to provide for them.  They are fully engaged in all the work of the day,  most of which are activities they naturally engage in but they still can't wait for free play at the end of the day.
