10/26 Update

This week, we read several versions of the classic story The Three Little Pigs. We talked about the characters in the story, the setting, and how stories usually have a problem and solution. We also enjoyed listening to The Three Little Piggies Rock Out - you can listen to it at home here! Here some picture highlights from the week:

We played a fun Pick a Pig game where we practiced letter and letter sound recognition!

 We practiced writing the letter H and found lots of words that begin with the "h" sound!

We experimented to see what "The Big Bad Wolf" could blow down!

We had so much fun acting out the story of The Three Little Pigs in our dramatic play center!

Here comes the Big Bad Wolf!

We sequenced the story of the Three Little Pigs in order, and talked about what happened at the beginning, middle and end of the story!

We made the three houses from The Three Little Pigs!

We also wrote and drew about what we would build our houses from. We had very creative ideas!
