Itsy Bitsy Spider!

Happy Wednesday 4K Families!

There was a sub for Miss McCabe again today. Therefore, we apologize for the lack of pictures. :)

Today we read different versions of the Itsy Bitsy Spider. We talked about some of the similarities and differences in stories. We also played a Spider Hider game. We hid a spider under different shapes and the children had to guess which shape the spider was hiding under. This was a fun way to reinforce shapes!



Your child visited their last center for the week. Ask him/her which center he/she visited!

The children made spider web names at the first center by tracing their names in glue and adding glitter. They finished their web by adding a spider with 2 body parts and 8 legs! Afterwards they went on a number/letter spider scavenger hunt around the room.



At the second center, the children made their spider Ss alphabet book page. The children made thumbprint spiders on the letter Ss. Then they had to draw 8 legs on each thumbprint spider. Our friends also made a scarecrow happy booklet at this center. We read the book together and identified emotions that the scarecrow was having. We drew faces on the scarecrows to show how they were feeling.





The last center that children rotated to was the Itsy Bitsy Spider nursery rhyme page. They had to circle all of the S's in their rhyme. The children completed this page for his/her nursery rhyme folder.



Playtime Fun!!!
During playtime, some of our friends did some marble painting to make a silky web. They added finishing touches by adding a colorful spider to their web.









We made monster books today as well! Check out your child's booklet at home! This activity worked on identifying shapes and making monsters with them! Our friends loved making this fun monster book!





REMINDER: Tomorrow is orange and black day!

Have a great night! :)
