Hello, Autumn!
This week brought the arrival of Fall. We read a book called Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn and talked about the changes that happen in Autumn. One of the changes the children noticed is that leaves are falling from the trees. I encouraged our class to look for leaves when we were outside on the playground. They amassed quite a collection and spent part of the morning sorting, examining, and identifying the leaves, using the book Awesome Autumn as a reference.
Some wanted to draw pictures of the leaves, while others made abstract drawings with Fall colors.
We ended the week by playing with our Fall sensory buckets.
