Z is for Zebra!

Hello Preschool Parents!

This week your children learned about the letter 'Zz'.

Stetson was saying, "Look, I did it!"  

Circle Time:

• My "x, y, z" Book by Jane Belk Moncure
• Zoomer by Ned Young
• Zoe's Sheep by Rose Bursik
• The Jazz Fly by Matthew Gollub
• Zoom by Robert Munsch
• When Lulu went to the Zoo by Andy Ellis

Dancing to the Snazzy Jazz music!

Music & Movement:

• We played 'Bumble Bee' tag and buzzed around like bees.
• We danced to Snazzy Jazz music.

Ready Readers:

• We practiced our flash cards and reading books.
• We put puzzles together.  Did you know PUZZLES are excellent for beginning readers?  The brain uses the same thought process to put puzzles together as it does to put words together.  
• We did a worksheet for our ABC books.

Snack:

• Zips crackers (like Ritz)
• Cheez Itz
• I let them play with their food (sorry)!  They took Pretzel sticks and made zigzag lines in jello and then ate it.  Mmm.

During free time.  Thayne said he's a king, but Nora
looks like she doesn't believe him!

Arts and Crafts:

• We colored and cut out different animal pictures and the children had to decide if they belonged on a Farm or in a Zoo.
• We made Zebras by gluing zebra print tissue paper onto a horse template (template found here).

Good job Matthew!!
