Our newest Arrival to the Lil' Dude Ranch

Over spring break our baby chicks arrived. I was so excited for the kids to come back to school to meet the newest addition to our class.  The kids loved them.  In fact a few of the kids could hardly leave their little cage.  For now we are able to keep the chicks in our preschool which has been REALLY fun for the kids.  These baby chicks came just in time for the month of April.  We will spend a lot of time talking about caring for animals as well as go on a field trip to Staheli Farm with the 4 year old classes. 
The chicks need to stay under a heat lamp to help them stay warm.
Say Cheese!

Mixing Colors!

Ah!  We are turning into the Incredible Hulk!
The kids had so much fun during our month of mixing colors.  Their favorite to mix was the yellow and blue.  The boys kept telling me that they were turing into the hulk.  Of course most of the girls had no idea what they were talking about, but is was fun to see them all use their imaginations.

Our Attitude of Gratitude

3 year old class

Morning class

Afternoon class
During the month of November were able to learn about GRATITUDE.  We were also able to celebrate Thanksgiving by having a feast of our own.  The kids got all dressed up like Indians and sang some more songs for mom and dad.  My favorite was "Hello Mr. Turkey". 

Halloween Party


This was our first party of the year and the kids were so excited when the time finally arrived.  We all dressed up, made some fun Halloween crafts, and of course trick or treated within our classroom.  Once our party was finished up, our moms and dads were able to join us for a fun little Halloween program.  We were able to sing "I'm a Mean Old Witch with a Hat" and "Five Little Pumpkins".  The kids were too cute and were only a little bit shy for our audience.
