Hello everyone!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and is already getting off to a good week!

Today, we started off the day with circle time and all the boys and girls were very excited to tell me their stories and anything new or exciting that has been going on. After, we got started on learning about horses and ponies. We did a worksheet on horses and most of us were even able to write the word 'horse' after tracing it once!   They all did a great job.

We looked at a diagram of a horse and learned that there are names for each part of the horse's body. We learned that horses have a mane, hooves, a long tail, and withers. Like us, horses also have two eyes, arms, elbows, shoulders, and others.

We did a weaving exercise where everyone was required to colour a picture of a horse and weave yarn through the page to create the horse's mane. Everyone did very well on this activity.

We also looked at different types of horses and ponies and watched a clip of horses running in meadows and fields.

We practiced for our performance that is coming up for the gala in February. Although this is just the beginning, everyone is doing very well so far. Good job, everyone!

We also traced the letter Ff and also had a competition. I split the class into two teams: orange and pink. One player was chosen from each time at a time and they had to free write a letter that I told them to on the white board. Whichever team could write the letter was the team that got the point!

Overall, it was a good day :)

Have a great night!!!
