"Uu"


For the letter "U" we colored a picture of an Umbrella, and drew a picture of ourselves Under the Umbrella. We had a fun snack of muffins. We turned our muffins Upside down and added a cut-off bendable straw to it to make our muffins look like an umbrella. They were yummy umbrellas!

Music is fun to learn about. After looking at and talking about different types of instruments, each child chose a CD to play. We listened to piano music, an orchestra, electric guitar, a Ukulele and brass band music. We listened to see if we could pick out the picture of what instrument was playing. The kids did pretty good at identifying the instrument! We then proceeded to dance to the music. We danced fast and slow. We hopped, and twirled. We pretended to be different animals as we listened to the music. There was plenty of movement and imagination going on today!

We then picked out the homemade instrument that we would be using during our spring program. We defiantly need more practice with our instruments before our program!!
