Children have many different learning styles. Preschoolers especially need to be moving and doing as they learn. When we read One Fish Two Fish… by Dr. Seuss I had several objectives in mind. I wanted to reinforce counting, introduce tally marks, and give the children some writing practice. First, we learned about the tally marks.

After examining, touching and exploring a tree, the children had a chance to paint a picture of the tree. Blossoms were created by using the bottom of a water bottle dipped in paint.

We are SO thrilled to be in beautiful Rocky Hill, NJ! We can walk to the local library, Post Office and Fire Station. Usually, our firefighters come to us, but this year, we walked to them! We were able to walk through the field behind our school and go to the station.
