Week of 4/29

5/3/2019

 
Dear Panda Room Parents,


 
We had a great week in the Panda Room learning all about  Theater and "Grown Ups Day" (our version of Mother's and Father's Day combined).
 
Books we read:
  • The Nicest Newt,  by Heather Feldman
  • 5 Minutes Peace, by Jill Murphy
  • Peter Pan and Wendy
 
Classroom Activities aka THEATER WEEK UPDATE:
  • Had our Letter of the Week “N”
  • We continued work on our scenery this week, adding more details to our pirate ship.
  • Every Panda was responsible for their own props and costumes! The children made swords, vests, wings, mermaid tails, dolls/teddy bears, eye patches, and Native American headdresses.. just to name a few. All of this works on fine motor development as well as social emotional growth. Allowing he kids to take ownership of their own belongings.
  • Our fine motor is not to be out done by our gross motor! Standing, dancing and singing is exhausting!! But luckily rehearsals are fun and we ALWAYS have free play afterwards.
  • Lastly, we work on our cognitive development- our working memory is on overdrive right now. Remembering our lines, when to stand and sit, the song and dance moves is all a big part of our cognitive growth.
  • We may be also working on a special project for our grown ups
 
Theme this week:
  • We talked about  Theater and Grown Ups Day
  • Next week we will continue this theme 
 
Reminders:
  • 4/24- Costumes Due-- if you have not brought your costume please do so
  • 5/13- PETER PAN PLAY 9 AM, cast party to follow
 
Have a wonderful weekend,

The Panda Room Teachers
