In the sensory table are pie tins with kinetic sand and apples to make apple pie. On the science table are felt cutouts to make apple trees. This week is all about Apples. We are going to learn all the parts of the apples and on Thursday we will be doing an apple taste test. Friday, I have an apple sticker activity and ripping paper art craft.
We are also focusing on the letter Hh, shape triangle, number 5, and the color black.
The activity center has apple number games, and Hh phonics coloring sheet and making apple patterns.

Memory Treasure With God all things are possible Matthew 19:26
K-1st: Mrs. Eckstrand
This week our Bible lesson is Jacob's Beautiful Dream. We began learning that Jacob had to run away from his brother Esau after stealing the birthright. He is running to his Uncle Laban's, when he has a dream and wrestles with God. Jacob learns directly from God that God will always be by our side, even when we mess up. Our memory treasure is Matthew 28:20b "And surely I am with you always until the end of the age"
