Fun Food Friday and More

Our MWF classes used the pumpkin that our 3 y/o pounded and wrapped string around the golf tees. It was a little soft in spots today but we're done!

We have learned a lot about nocturnal animals and wrote a report.  We also chose our favorite nocturnal animal.  We use words like greatest, least, equal and zero!  What was your child's favorite?

Morning Class

Afternoon Class

Spider legs, spider web balls, monkey eyes, mouse ears and dragon teeth.  Yummy!

Push Pin Pumpkins---part 2

Many patterns and many pins make a

fun new activity for our classroom!

The Biggest Pumpkin

Parent brings you cardboard box because she knows you love

giant cardboard boxes (who doesn't?)

 The box gets turned inside out and cut into a giant pumpkin.

 Gather all the orange paper scraps and tear orange paper into scraps.

All classes turn the brown pumpkin into an orange pumpkin

(we seriously use a lot of glue at MCP) 

 Explain the voting process to MWF classes. 

Each child goes to the 'voting booth' and

receives a triangle and a circle to secretly vote. 

 Morning class voted on the eyes and

the afternoon class voted on the nose

(not so secret because most kids told their friends how they voted ☺)

 Eyes and nose get glued and the mouth is a pattern. 

A pattern can have the same color and shape!

A few more days of Halloween fun left!

The Forbidden Forest

Our garden bulletin board is

filled with monsters!

Push Pin Pumpkins

We have a lot of fun with pumpkins during center time.  Our TTh 3 y/o class uses safety goggles, a toy hammer and golf tees for some pumpkin pounding.



Mr. Potato Head parts make funny pumpkins.

New this year!  Push Pin Pumpkins for our MWF preK classes!  A pattern is started and the child receives five pins to continue the pattern.  Easy breezy fun for home!
