Our Annual Class Play!

Most years my four's class writes a play.  We base the play on a story that we've read during the school year.  Past year's plays have been based on Little Red Riding Hood, The Mitten, Peter and the Wolf to name a few.  This year the children chose "Peter Pan".  They rewrote the story to include several new characters!  We had Peter Pan and Pierre Pan, Mittens the Cat, Martha the talking dog from "Martha Speaks", Baby Mario, Ariel, Stitch, and several others.  The children and their parents came up with their costumes and the children decorated the backdrops.  We practiced and practiced and practiced some more!  The performance was marvelous!

Hibernation Day in Preschool!

Hibernation Day (aka Pajama Day) has to be one of my favorite days of the year!  The children love it and are so engaged!  I thought I'd share a pictorial story of our day!  Enjoy!

We began the day with music/movement class!

We begin our hunt for clues to where the bear is hiding!

Continuing on the Bear Hunt!  The clue took us down the stairs!

We found the bear!

 Hibernating in our cave!

Eating popcorn in the cave!

A messy cave with a few crumbs left over!

A story is a great way to end the day!
