Today we did some fun things that were all about corn. We looked at ears of corn at our viewing table. They are pretty neat and have lots of little kernels on them. Along with all of the ears of corn, there were pumpkins and a dragonfly. We also got to do tumbling on our mat, the table top easels and a water and sponge activity. On Tuesday we were able to get outside. We played with the Play Doh, trucks, hoops, balls, and outdoor blocks.
Our songs today were "5 Little Pumpkins", "Leaves are Falling", "Grey Squirrel", and "I'm a Nut". We had a very good story with some great pictures. It was called "Time to Harvest". Harvest means to pick foods. There were pictures of harvesting corn, grapes, potatoes, tomatoes; all sorts of things. We sure did learn a lot.
Our snack was funny. Since it was cooking day we had a popcorn popper and popcorn. Mrs. Whiteman put oil in the popper and then she added some popcorn and put a big round lid over the top. You could see through the lid. When she plugged in the machine, we could hear the oil sizzle and then all of a sudden we could see the popcorn popping. It made us laugh so hard. We had some pretzels too.
When it was time to do art we got to do something cool with an ear of corn. We painted with it. Now how do you do that?
