Young Learners: Mouse Count!

Literature and dramatic play: we read Mouse Count, thrn retold the story with a snake, a jar, a rock, and 10 plastic mice.

Music: 

Hickory Dickory Dock: I have a mouse puppet that the children took turns wearing for verses of the song.

M is for Make Believe

I filled the dramatic play center with dress up clothes, shoes, hats, and gloves, today. The children set up a laundromat and had a few irons and ironing boards going, too. Awards to Chloe and Reagan for the most wardrobe changes, today! 

Handwriting: M with chalk 

Sensory: m is for macaroni! 

I think he would stay in the sensory bins all day every week, if I let him. 

Sensory: m is for music! 

You guys. Only the love of a preschool teacher. This is why they pay me. The children love it and have quite the marching band. 

Art: Assorted M stamps 

Fine Motor/Science: m is for Magnet

I provided magnet wands, sticks, marbles, nuts, washers, and paper clips.

Sharing/phonics: bring something that begins with letter M. 

And of course, if you give a mouse a cookie for story time 

We also read, the Big Hungry Bear and the Ripe Red Strawberry, Mouse's First Halloween.
