Today we learned a new vocabulary word, Harvest. When we pick all the fruits and vegetables from our trees and gardens, and we are now done with our garden until after the snow comes and we fix our gardens again. I love trying to teach small children big words. Harvest is one of those words. I'm not sure they knew what I meant until I mentioned vegetable stands where our moms like to go to get corn on the cob, that seemed to light some bulbs!
We talked about Scarecrows and there job to protect the field from birds. We read the book "The lonely Scarecrow", and sang the fun song, "Shoo Crow". We glued our very own scarecrows using different shaped paper. For our snack we had corn bread, and dried apples. Last but not least, we played a passing game called "Scarecrow Joe".
We stared our number theme today. For #1 we each chose "one" ribbon to glue to our one. I hung the numbers we will be decorating on the wall, so don't be surprised if the children want to also hang their numbers on their wall too.
