Thanksgiving theme and Turkey Trot

This week we will be doing centers based on the theme of Thanksgiving. Our dramatic play areas will be set up so the kids can set the table for a Thanksgiving Feast. We will be increasing our fine motor by using turkey basters and pushing feathers across the table.  We will also  be feathering turkeys using feathers and colanders. Our math will be counting turkeys, identifying the number and writing the number we will also be matching feather shapes.  Our letters with week will be W and X. Our finale for the week with be the Turkey Trot!!  We also plan on trying to do a cooking activity making pumpkin pie in a cup.

Info on Turkey Trot:

Please join us and cheer on the students in this fun run/walk around the school campus.  The students need to be dressed in athletic wear (including tennis shoes)  as well as for the weather, ie. coats, hats, mittens.  Please note the Turkey Trot will be cancelled if there is heavy rain or snow.   The AM DAP students will report to the Gym at 9:15 and run/walk at 9:30.  The PM DAP students will report to the gym at 1:15 and run/walk around 1:30.  Students still report to their classrooms just like any other day. The teachers will get the students ready for the run/walk when it is time and will see the parents cheering us on as we run/walk.
