T is for Thankfulness













Today our preschool met and Jeanne was their teacher again. They learned the letter 'T'. They were so cute when Jeanne taught them that tongue and toes start with the letter T. Connor came home and told Uncle Brant that he learned the letter T by sticking out his tongue and he said we put our feet on the table. They learned that their toes start with T and they put their foot on the table when they learned that. They also made the cutest turkeys. Each feather of the turkey named one thing or person that they were thankful for. They read a Dora book about Thanksgiving and who Dora was thankful for. They painted the letter T and we tried to use finger paints to make a turkey but we just couldn't get it right. They sang the cutest little song to the rhythm of "Ring Around the Rosie" about who they were thankful for. It was a wonderful lesson. I must say as the assistant it is nice to watch another teacher and gleen things from observation. Later I will do another post of the things I am thankful for but today I am thankful for our preschool group and the amazing teachers Connor gets the privilege of learning from!

Isn't it so much fun trying to teach 3 year olds their letters. Mine thinks everything is a "C"!
