Preschool Room

Here is some pictures from my preschool classroom.  I teach two days a week and have a wonderful group of 4/5 year olds!  I hope you may gain a fun idea or two!

Calendar Time
   We have a calendar, of course!  It is a pocket chart calendar, which I love!  It makes it very easy to add days and change them out.  I have different calendar markers for each month. Come December I plan on using the patterning calendar cards from the Me & Marie Store.  I started with non-patterning for the beginning of the year. 

At the bottom of the calendar I have another form of patterning practice.  We just started this a week ago.  These are just laminated cards with stickers used to create AB and ABC patterns.

Today Is Brought to You By...

This is a poster I made long ago, but I still love.  Inspired by Sesame Street, this poster is a quick and easy way to review shapes, letters, numbers and colors.  A PDF version simliar to this one is available in the Me & Marie Store. 

Colorful Cliffords:  We use these fun colorful Cliffords to review colors and we use it as a word wall for color words.  My sister made these long ago and are one of my favorites!

Number Train: I created this number train using a diecut machine.  Each car on the number train has a number with the corresponding number of objects.

Weather Chart: This is a weather chart I altered from http://www.jmeacham.com/.  We have a weather helper who looks out the window and tells us the weather.  He or she places a sticker in the correct column on the chart.  We talk about which type of weather has the most/least.  I change these every month.  Here is what we sing while the weather watcher is at the window:

Weather Watcher, Weather Watcher

What do you see? What do you see?

Tell us what the weathers like, tell us what the weathers like,

Chloe please, Chloe please.
