Autumn activities were throughly embraced at SMART START!
Read below to see what our young learners experienced this season š
Fall fun began with a class favorite, “Apple Tree Counting.” This game consists of adding apples on a tree to match the numbered bushel. Addition and subtraction problems can also be introduced for example, adding the sum of two trees.
“Leaf Letters” was another learn through play activity. Upper & lowercase leafs were matched and simple words such as “fall” were spelled.
Friends frolicked around their pretend play pumpkin patch. All found a perfect pumpkin to paint!
Autumn was in the air as classmates enthusiastically jumped off hay bales, stuffed a scarecrow and went on wagon rides!
Gross motor skills were challenged and enhanced while raking and jumping in leaves!
Learning in and about the outdoors is a central component of our curriculum. Our students appreciated all of nature’s changes: rainy days, brisk mornings, falling leaves, bright colors, prickly pinecones and more!
An autumn masterpiece was created using paper, leaves and paint.
A “Fall About Me” poster was completed and presented by each student. A fun way to learn fall facts about the class!
