Subject: Today in preschool

Hello Families,

Today in preschool, we focused our circle around the letter of the week [ E ] as well as pumpkins.

Before any clues, I asked the children to think of words that they already knew that began with E. Together we came up with this list:

Elephant

Egg

Eric

Ethan

Ear

Eat

Afterwards I asked if anyone had ever been to a pumpkin patch. We talked about what a pumpkin patch was, where we find them, and what they're for. Activities after circle surrounded what we talked about. In the pictures attached you will find:

·         children gluing Eric U, Eric N, and Ethan onto the letter E

·         Observing a pumpkin with a magnifying glass and writing down observations

·         Lucas K reading "Too Many Pumpkins" to his friends.

Hope everyone is having a great day!
