Today the children learned about bears and the letter ‘R’ (see Monday). We made another bear den, and the children gathered newspaper ‘leaves & sticks’ to stuff into the den so it would be warm and cozy for winter hibernation. The children took turns trying out the den, but today we only fit 5 little bear cubs in at one time, probably because they decided to put Mr. Bear (our big teddy bear) into the den too.
In music, the children experimented with different ways of playing their rhythm sticks. Then we practiced playing a steady beat all together before playing along to the song Run, Run, Run. After playing, the children had a chance to paint their rhythm sticks.
We also sang a new song, Little Rabbit Foo Foo, while getting ready for home today.
