Read an “Alpha Tale,” or any book of your choice to your child. Encourage them to find words in that book that begin with the letter /n/. To reinforce this concept, play What’s in the bag? Your child will pull items from a paper bag; identify the item, and its beginning letter sound.Blocks – Using butcher paper cover blocks, or use boxes from the mail, to create trees or parts of the trees.Dramatic Play – Create an eye chart and encourage children to examine their eyes by looking at the eye chart.Science – Provide each child with their own journal in which to record the predictions, observations and conclusions they make in the science area or related to science content. Journal pages should be blank, rather than lined. Be sure to introduce these journals to children and provide clear directions for use. Highlight the sounds and shapes of letters for children as they are ready, to help them record their observations. Math – Number of the Week: 3. Encourage your child to use math manipulatives or household items such as pennies, Cheerios, beans, or pasta to represent the number 3. Have your child take out one item at a time from the cup and count until they reach 3 and there are no more items in the cup. Have your child pick up one item at a time and place it back in the cup until they reach 3 and all items are back in the cup. Encourage your child to create a collage using a variety of art materials to form the number 3. Lastly, have your child represent the number 3 using stickers.TuesdayDate: 10/06/20Introduce that today we will walk outside to the playground to play and use our eyes to see and note what we find. Ask children for 2-3 ideas of things they might see (buildings, cars, leaves, trees, etc.). Remind the children that they need to be safe while we walk outside and play on the playground. Gather 3-5 ideas about how to be safe, such as holding hands with an adult, staying with the group, listening for directions by the teacher, taking turns, or keeping hands and feet to self. Write these safety rules on chart paper as the children generate the ideas. During our walk to the playground and while they play, ask children to describe what they see, highlighting words that describe color, shape, size, etc. Highlight additional seasonal characteristics such as leaves changing color and falling to the ground. As you return to the classroom, name, or ask children to name, ways that they stayed safe outside. Ask children to name a few things that they saw, using descriptive words as much as possible.Art – Encourage children to draw one thing they saw while on the playground or outside their home.Writing – Affix bells to the ends of various writing/drawing utensils.

Next, practice snipping paper. If your child has mastered these tasks, invite them to cut vertical and horizontal lines.Sensory – Add colored gems or aquarium stones to the sensory table. Talk with the children about the colors and look for other items in the room that are the same color.Outdoor Play – Engage children in a conversation about the weather: How does it feel outside today? It is fall; how does the weather change in the fall? What are your senses telling you about the weather and how do we respond? What do we need to do to keep our bodies healthy and safe? Do we need to wear jackets? Mittens or a hat? Etc.Music and Movement – Invite children to use different body parts to make music such as clapping hands, tapping feet, snapping fingers and using their mouths to make loud, soft, fast and slow songs and rhythms.WednesdayDate: 10/07/20The teacher will read, Leaves by David Ezra Stein. This story is about a little bear that isn’t quite sure what to do the first time he sees leaves falling off of the trees. Discuss with the children that all leaves contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll in leaves absorbs sunlight to produce food for the leaves. In the fall, the changes in temperature and the length of daylight cause the chlorophyll to slow down and the leaves to change colors, such as read orange and yellow.Listen to this story by clicking the link below:Leaves INCLUDEPICTURE "C:\\var\\folders\\zg\\tq1070x16cz3bx5ps17xk33r0000gq\\T\\com.microsoft.Word\\WebArchiveCopyPasteTempFiles\\images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSSVnGT1GyHkqMmQqG7zwmLxZAV0ybXhPbydC2NDyjIbnBLKsKlB99axM4yT2HsB2W764V8sKC2&usqp=CAc" \* MERGEFORMAT Art – Children will create leaf rubbings by placing a piece of paper over a leaf and rub the side of a crayon over the paper.

Invite children to create a menu to sell items such as apple cider, apple donuts, apple pie and different types of apples. Children could make these items with playdough. If possible, include books about apples and add real apples to the center. Talk with the children about the apples and invite them to explore apples with all of their senses. They can see different color apples, touch how they feel, hear the crunchy sound when they take a bite and taste how sweet or sour each apple is. Encourage children to consider where and how apples grow, why apple skins are different colors and why they are healthy to eat. Additionally, they can consider who else eats apples besides people, what else apples are used for (apple juice, apple donuts, apple pie, apple bread) and when apples ready to be picked.Science – Provide or grow an herb garden (using edible, fragrant herbs such as rosemary or mint, or other herbs that are more relevant to the class community) with the class.

Add these leaves, as well as tape, to the center. Invite children to use these leaves, and the blocks in the center to create trees. Be sure to include pictures of trees for the children to reference and if possible, invite children to study the trees they see outside.
