Dinosaurs! Wednesday Preschool

You can't talk about the letter D without talking about dinosaurs!  We had so much fun exploring different dinosaurs and reading dinosaur books.  Each child came home with a dinosaur name puzzle to practice spelling their name.  Encourage them to play it at home with you. 

 We are becoming readers and it is so exciting to be a part of all these kids lives!




 We made some really fun dinosaurs in art time.  We cut out the dinosaur shapes (pre-traced) from green paper.  Then we glued them onto white paper and added hand prints as the dinosaurs spikes.
 We also make dinosaur feet out of foam crafting sheets.


 In the afternoon we continued our focus on long vowel a.
 Preschool B loves playing on Starfall.com on the SmartBoard and there are so many different games on it that it grows along with our growing knowledge.
 OB from the morning class practices walking with his new dinosaur feet :)
 We dig into our encyclopedias almost every day.  Most days we look through it to learn more about topics that interest us.  Today we went hunting with highlighter tape in hand for long a words.

 The home made silly putty only lasts for a few weeks, so we pulled it out again at the end of the day.
