All About Me

This is a time of transition for the children and teachers in Elmo's
Explorers. The children are getting used to their new room and materials.
To help us get to know each other better we are focusing on the theme,
"All About Me!" We have talked about how each of us is special and
unique--

a one of a kind masterpiece!

This week the children examined their finger prints by using the stamp pads
and paper. We also talked about our families; the children drew
pictures of their families, which are now hanging up in our classroom!

One special highlight this week, which ties in nicely with our discussion
of families, was having Quinn's dad, who is a policeman, come in and show
us his uniform and police car. The children had fun taking turns sitting
behind the wheel of the police car with their sticker badges on. This was
a great experience for the children, and I think Quinn's dad had just as
much fun as the children did.
