Travel & Transportation ~ June 2015

Preschool News
We have had such a fun, busy month!  We had such a great time exploring our Travel and Transportation unit.  Two of our favorite stories this month were Up, Up, Up by: Susan Reed and We All Go Traveling by: Sheena Roberts.

Take a peek and see all the wonderful activities your child participated in this month!
Sensory ~ Car wash with vehicles, shaving cream, spray bottles, and sponges.
The block area had all kinds of transportation toys and materials, but our favorite was building ramps and sliding cars, trucks and airplanes down the big tube! 


We turned our dramatic play center into an airport!  Our airplane flew to many different destinations and everyone took turns in the pilot seat. 


We spent a few days fishing in our classroom boat.  We caught some big ones!

Gross Motor and Fine Motor ~ Scooter Boards with Transportation Puzzles.
 

 Writing Center ~ Hot Air Balloons and Transportation BINGO!  We worked on following directions, attending, number recognition and working cooperatively in a small group (turn-taking, sharing). 


We also did quite a bit of gardening this month.  Did you notice our new ECDC garden?  Special thank you to Miss Claudia for helping us get some plants in the ground!  Everyone had a great time raking, digging and planting!  It will be fun to watch our garden grow over the summer! 

We had so much fun this year!!
Thank you to all of our families for sharing your children with us and helping make this year so great!  Wherever this summer takes you, whether you are walking, driving, flying or sailing, we wish you safe travels and a wonderful journey!   

Love,
Miss Julie, Miss Becky, Miss Sonya & Miss Susan
