Tot School - Weeks Two and Three


Ok-so I'm a little behind on Tot School so I'm squeezing in two weeks here!

Week Two - Circles

Tabel Time:  We painted a circle with watercolors; painted with different sized circle sponges; made circles with play-doh, made fruit-loop necklace; and used our circle stamp on our magna doodle

Floor Time: shape sorter, went around room finding our toys that were circles, ball

Snacks - banana slices, fruit loops, circle-shaped popsicles

Music - Ring Around the Rosie,
 
             It's A Circle (Tune of Brother John) 
Here's a circle (Repeat)  Hold up your circle
How do you know? (Repeat)  Hands out as if asking a ?
Because it goes round and round (Repeat)  Move circle round and round
It's a circle (Repeat)  Hold up circle

Week Three - Body Parts

"Miss Priss" already knows most of her body parts such as head, eyes, ears, nose, mouth but we still needed to work on shoulders, knees, and a few others!

Tabel Time:  We traced their bodies, labeled, and colored them; created play-doh people and faces

Floor Time: giant bone puzzle, Body Parts and Moves on our Fisher Price Laugh and Learn Station, hokey pokey Elmo

Snacks - baked cookies and created faces on them with smarties, fruit loops, marshmallows and icing

Music - Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes; Be Careful Little Eyes; Hokey Pokey

Books - One of my absolute favorite books for 1-3 years olds - We've All Got Bellybuttons by Randy Cecil; and All of Baby Nose to Toes by Victoria Adler
