Fall Walk

We enjoyed the beautiful fall weather today with a walk in the neighborhood. As we walked we noticed the colorful leaves that are falling from the trees.

We worked together to put the leaves in a big pile.......and then took turns jumping in!

Stop, Drop, and Roll

During our Fire Safety theme, we learned what to do if our clothes ever catch on fire.




Stop......

Drop.............

and Roll.

House Fire Painting

We are learning about fire safety in the three year old preschool class this week.

During art we made some paintings of a house on fire.
We started out with thin red, yellow, and orange paint. We blew the paint around our paper with straws. It was hard work!

Then we added smoke with paint rings and gray paint.

Shape Monsters

The Thursday morning class made shape monsters this morning. It was so fun to see their creativity at work!

Marshmallow Monsters

Butterfly Party

Our Very Hungry Caterpillar theme wrapped up this afternoon with our Butterfly Party. Thanks to all Dorothy's great butterfly ideas, we had a great time acting out the life cycle of the butterfly.



We started out as caterpillars that just hatched out of eggs. We crawled around pretending to eat leaves.

After we ate enough, we laid down on the floor and got wrapped up in our chrysallis.

After we rested in our chrysallis, we were transformed into beautiful butterflies (thanks to some tissue paper and pipe cleaners).

We sipped our nectar during snack time.
