Our first day was a huge hit!
The look on each child's face when they saw their own hot air balloon was priceless and made me remember why I love teaching so much:)
The first group of pictures is the preschool room and prep for our new year. It is so much fun having my own preschool room now and a huge blessing, as it is so much easier to prep early and have it stay that way (instead of moving around my kitchen daily depending on what we were doing, like last year).
To begin our big day I took pictures of each child while the others played with their letter names
Charlotte was so excited she joined in as well
For literacy we read the book (and sang it and listened to it, lol) UP UP UP while the kids sat in their hot air balloons to take a ride in the world around them.
For math we pulled out the spindle and worked on the numbers 1-10
For art we colored names so they can play with them or put them up on the wall to see and work on (names and letters) when they are home.
Overall it was an amazing day filled with smiles and laughter (mixed in with learning of course) and I can't wait for Thursday!!
