All About Me

The All About Me theme, provides children with the opportunity to answer the all-important question "Who Am I?"  We have spent the last two weeks listening to songs and poems about "special me".  The Rainbow kids got to know Ms. Susan and Ms. Annarose by hearing about what's special to them.   Some of our favorite activities have been writing our names in salt and making finger print cookies.  This week we have been exploring the 5 senses.  In the science center, the rainbow scientists conducted taste tests when learning about their sense of taste.  We tested foods that were sweet, sour and salty.  I was surprised to learn that a few children love the sour taste of lemons.  We will be wrapping up our monthly All About Me theme by learning about our family.  The classroom routines are coming into place.  The children are getting to learn how to move to different learning centers by using clips to know when a center is open.  The children have enjoyed being Leader of the Day.  The Leader of the Day is the teacher's helper for the day and has show and tell the next day.  Look for a certificate reminder that your child has show and tell the following day.
