Dear Red Room Families,

Great to see you at Curriculum Night! It was another busy week in the Red Room... Here are some of our activities:
 
Theme:

• Leaf Trouble, by Jonathan Emmet

Centers:

• We sorted leaves by color and made leaf patterns in the Math Center
• The children drew and wrote about things that happen in the fall during our Writing Center
• In the Science Center, the children mixed equal parts water, flour, and salt with a few drops of food coloring to make their own paint.
• We collaged pictures of leaves to make an Autumnal Hedgehog in the Art Center.
• The children used real corn, squash, and gourds to build a Farmer’s Market in the Block Center.

• We made a list of all the “E” words we know and played an “E” sorting game on the SMART Board
