November


NOVEMBER LESSON: MANNERS AND THANKSGIVING
I combined practice saying "Thank You", "Please", "I'm Sorry", "Your Welcome" and "Excuse Me" with some Thanksgiving activities during the month of November.

The children were playing with various tools
that are used when cooking Thanksgiving Dinner.
This toddlers is squeezing water with a turkey baster.

He is squeezing water from a turkey baster into a measuring cup. Great coordination!

We counted how many scoops of water it took to fill the larger measuring cup with water.

This young toddler just learned how to put these waffle blocks together
through his play and observing his friends.
