Autumn is Here!

It was wonderful learning about all of the Yom Tov holidays, but we are very excited to start learning all about autumn. We began by reading the book Fall is Here! I love it so much! by Elaine W. Good, we then discussed all the different things that happen during the fall season. Everyone shared what they were excited about. Most of class can’t wait for the leaves to change color and to learn about pumpkins.

We got to take a nature walk on Friday and we saw that many of leaves had already begun to fall, some were red, others were yellow and there were even some that were green. We gathered all different fall items, such as leaves, acorns, pine cones and evergreen needles. Throughout the season we will continue to take nature walks so can closely observe how the environment is changing.

Throughout Wednesday and Thursday we continued to get reacquainted with our centers, the playground and letters. We started our letter journals this week, we got to write the letters F and L and draw a picture a word that starts with those letters. I wonder which letter we learn next week. After the rain the ground was full of different animals and after we finished observing them we made sure to put them back in their homes.
