Calendar!

Our little preschool is starting to take flight.  For the next two weeks we'll just be doing calendar and memory verse to get ourselves into the routine of sitting and paying attention.  After Labor Day the 2 oldest girls will start detailed preschool while the "littles" join in when they can and enjoy big kid table time activities with us.

(I've since changed the month, of course.  This is when I first put it up.)

Everyone is sitting on the letter that their name begins with (R is standing on his).  These are all part of a large puzzle mat but are proving to be distracting because the letters pop out.  Never fear...Miss Jenn will develop new sensory smart ones soon!

Natalee took the honor of putting the number up on the first day since she was familiar with the calendar routine.

Getting those wiggles out with head, shoulders, knees, and toes!  Look at everyone participating!

She was so sweet with this song.  She's got her toes but is ready for the next round of "heads."

A bean bag song! 

 H is the next oldest so she earned the honor of putting the letter on today!

The big girls are proving to be as attentive as I expected and the littles are surprising me by doing more than I thought they would.  I'm very excited about the learning that is happening in this time frame!  I intend to keep this as a steady familiar routine with a few fun twists thrown in each week so that this time is fun and doesn't grow stale.  We enjoy movement songs, using our hands to learn our memory verse, and singing loudly!  If you are ever around at 9 a.m. stop in for some fun!
