Happy Holidays

We like to do art projects around the holidays at Miss Amy's ABC Preschool.  These are a couple that we have worked on so far. 

I loved how these turkeys turned out.  You can

also make them with craft feathers, but I

loved the drawing that the kids did on the feathers.

 

 

 

In November we read "Where the Wild Things Are" and made crowns

to be kings and queens of the wild things at school. The kids LOVED it!

My favorite part about this craft was watching the kids decide how many presents to put under their tree.  They loved that part! In the past I've had beads and pom poms to glue on these trees, but this year we tried sticker jewels and foam stickers.  Much easier...and they turned out so cute!

Fall is fun!

We know how to have fun at Miss Amy's ABC Preschool!  Everyone dressed up for our Halloween Party.  We played fun games, made a skeleton craft, and even decorated delicious cookies to look like pumpkins.  A BIG thanks to all the parents that came to help with the party and to those that drove to Black Island Farms in Syracuse. 

Slides at Black Island Farms...wahoo!

We have also been learning lots of things in
preschool this fall.  We talked about the fall
season and made these paper towel roll trees.  
I love the smiley face tree!  SO CREATIVE!

 

A is for Apple....We talked about Johnny Appleseed.




 B is for BLUE....we love to paint at preschool.

 Brown Bear, Brown Bear...what do you see? 
Children love this story by Eric Carle.  We used it with our unit on colors and color words.

Center Time...  We rotate centers and have different hands on activities at each station.  I love all those cute smiles.

Our Alphabet Tree

Miss Amy is busy, busy getting everything ready for preschool to start. This year we will have something new in our classroom to help us with our ABC's.  We will be adding a letter (capital and lower case) every day to Our Alphabet Tree! 

 

Many Syracuse schools are starting within the next few days, but remember the first day for Miss Amy's ABC preschool is Tuesday, September 2nd.  I will be mailing welcome letters to the students this week so watch your mailbox.  Can't wait to see you all soon!

 

 

Counting Down!!!

Miss Amy is getting excited for school to start on September 2nd.  I can't believe there are only 31 days left to go.  I've been getting our classroom ready.  I hope you're getting excited too!

If you know anyone in the Syracuse area looking for a preschool opening, I do have a couple spots left.  Have a great day!
