I hope everyone is enjoying our beautiful weather! We are making the most of our time outside before it gets too cold. Many of the children are noticing the leaves falling and changing colors...so it is a great time to start our Leaf Unit! This week our unit is, "The Leaves Are Changing." We are also learning the letter Ll. This is a two week unit. In our sensory tub is a ton of Fall Leaves! We are having fun sorting them, crunching them, and looking at the different shapes. At our easel I put all Fall colors and I have encouraged the chidlren to paint fall leaves. They are looking great so far! Here is some info on the rest of the week...

For our art project we colored fall leaves for the hallway. This completed our Halloween Hallways Display!
We began our letter Ll packet today. At circle time we talked about lots of words that began with the letter L and also looked at pictures. In the morning we had library class, and in the afternoon we collected leaves outside for our sensory tub. We had a lot of fun noticing the different colors and shapes of all the leaves.
