More Gobble, Gobble, Gobblin!

The Junebug Weekly

November 8 and November 10

More Gobble, Gobble, Gobblin'!

The Creative Corner

Waddle, Wobble, Gobble!

Tuesday-November 8

Turkey Hands and Feet

After a mini-review on the parts of a turkey (feathers, beaks, wings, claws) Junebugs will get messy as they make turkeys using their hands and sweet feet.

Corn Bin Corral

Hands on corn play is back for another week of fun!  The Junebugs loved playing in bins of corn with spoons, cups, and other tools last week too much to not try it again.

Thursday-November 10

Turkey Tracing

Junebugs will use their fine motor skills to make a traditional hand print turkey by tracing their little hands.  They will then decorate their turkeys with a variety of seasonal items.  


F is for Feather
Junebugs will recognize the letter F in uppercase print and learn it's sound.  They'll sing the "F sounds" song as they make feathered turkey friends.

Circle Time Routine

Educational. Social. Playful.

Greeting

Find and sit on your circle time mat.  Greet your friends with the song 'Hello Neighbor!'.  Read Fly High Little Bird.

Morning Stretch

"Point to your nose, reach down to your toes, wiggle your hips, and bend your elbows.  Reach up high to the sky,  reach down low to the floor, stretch to the window, and stretch to the door.  Whisper 'shhhhh' and sit quietly on the floor."

Morning Work

Calendar

Sing the "Seven Days In A Week".  Discuss today's theme and activities.

Weather

Observe the weather through the window and discuss proper clothing using flashcards.

Numbers

Count to 10 on your fingers.  Sing along with 'Ten Little Numbers'.

Letters

Sing the 'ABCs' with instruments.  Rap the 'ABC's' with Elmo.  Listen to 'Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom'.  Color the letter of the day (F is for feather) and glue it into your notebook.

Morning Songs

Ten Little Turkeys
I'm a Little Turkey
I'm a little turkey,
my name is Ted,
Here are my feathers and here is my head.
Gobble, gobble, gobble is what I say,
Quick! Run!
It's Thanksgiving Day!

We hope you aren't too tired of all the turkey talk yet!  Around here we are big turkey fans so we're gearing up for another week of fowl fun with our little Junebugs.
