Welcome to Our Outdoor Classroom
In October we have had so much fun
It is time to look at all we have done
We enjoy learning and playing with everybody
As Families was our unit of study
Our centers included literacy, art, fine motor, even math
And we love exploring a new hiking path
On hikes we saw fall colors are all around
while collecting nature from the ground
We used the twigs to paint our art
And sorted leaves by colors to tell them apart
We wrap up each day with a song and a book
Below are pictures to share from our class, please take a closer look.
Using nature to paint at easels. Our beautiful background helps with creative inspiration. |
Small group learning with a teacher. Here they are making Bambaloo masks from the book Sometimes I am Bambaloo. |
How would you describe the emotions of this mask? Happy? Silly? Excited? We talked about our many different emotions. |
Geoboards are used to practice fine motor, math, and problem solving. |
Some of our animal family toys found themselves stuck under tape. Our class practiced using scissors to cut the animals free. |
On muddy days, we use the tarp in dramatic play. We played with animal families and built shelters for the animals with Legos. |
We read and talked about houses where people and animals might live. We built houses with cups and Legos. |
We fished out letters hidden in the sensory table and found the matching letter on the magnetic board. |
Stringing color patterns with straws onto yarn |
We used the easel to put animal family number puzzles together. |
Rainy days won’t stop us from having fun and learning. Here we are using different size droppers and water colors. |
We love hiking and collecting nature on the beautiful trails at Seager. |
