Letter Aa

This week we can't get our minds off the letter A!
The kiddos enjoyed putting apple stickers on the letter A and coloring pictures that started with /a/
Then I got this awesome idea to use their bodies to make the letter A. They had NO idea what I was talking about. Perhaps you could show them this picture because they just couldn't see it from their angle
But they just LOVED laying around! So it was a win!

Here's Thursday's snack time... LOTS of personality going on here....
 More letter A fun: picking apples from our class tree

Our FIRST week of preschool

Fall is such a perfect time to start a new class. I can just smell the freshly sharpened pencils and feel the anticipation of parents dropping off their kids. So. Much. Excitement!
 Thursday was R E D day in case you didn't guess

It made the 100th day of school 100 times more exciting!!!

 Here are some of our celebrations:
Reading "The 50 Hike"
 Putting together this puzzle (which was actually REALLY hard)
 
 Counting and popping 100 kernels of popcorn:
 
 more of reading "The 50 Hike"
 

Guessing how far 100 steps is in the hall, then counting it:
 
100 pieces of cereal to start the day: 
  It was QUITE obvious that not everyone counted out 100 pieces of cereal.....
 Did I mention that we dressed like we were 100 years old???
 Look at those grey hairs!!!
 
 The Macarena count to 100:
 Writing from 1-100 with the 4th grade buddies:
 
 Their hats have 100 dots
