Rock Stars! We are going to have a great time exploring the theme of Curious Cats! Moving like a cat can be so much fun! We will explore jumping, pouncing, running, pawing, sniffing, licking, rolling, and snuggling like a cat during Running Revolution! We will dance like cats to Everybody Want To Be A Cat from the animation Aristocats. The obstacle course will be brought back for exploration time with two added centers: a kitchen musical center and cat exploration box. Magnifying glasses will be introduced to encourage the Rock Stars to take a closer look at the things in their environment and talk about them! We will sing the song I’m a Little Kitten to the tune of I’m a Little Teapot! This week is a big one for exploring rhythm. We will use an African Children’s song called Tu! Tu! Gbovi to explore ostinato rhythm. We will explore musical instruments to an African drum rhythm. We will finish off class with shape collage animal art (while listening to Mozart) and the book Kitten’s First Full Moon!
Superstars! Get ready for a fun class full of exploration! We will jump, pounce, run, paw, sniff, lick, roll, stretch, meow, and purr! Dancing to Everybody Wants To Be A Cat will be a blast with cat ears on our heads! The obstacle course is coming back with two added stations: kitchen musical play and a special cat bag to explore with our magnifying glasses! We will sing the song I’m A Little Kitten to the tune of I’m a Little Teapot! It’s important to work on our rhythm, so, we will clap to an African children’s song called Tu! Tu! Gbovi! Then, we’ll bring out some musical instruments to explore to some African drum rhythms. We will finish off class with shape collage animal art (while we listen to Mozart) and enjoy the story Kitten’s First Full Moon!

Week 6-Changing Colors!
Welcome, to Changing Colors week!
Housekeeping: Suzanne Hatch, our service coordinator, has organized a service project for The Christmas Box House! The Christmas Box House is in need of the following items: toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, soap for sensitive skin, new socks, new underwear, new jeans, new t-shirts, new sweatshirts (any size for the listed items). The Christmas Box House provides these items for children of all ages whom they house until they find permanent residency with a family. You may bring these items to class and drop them in the bin during the month of October! Thank you, for your support!
Halloween Pictures! Sheryll Lynne Photography has offered to come to class on the 30th to take individual pictures of The Stars in their costumes. The details are still being worked out. It will be a nominal fee and you’ll receive a few 5 by 7 prints. Sheryll Lynne Photography is raising money for the Typhoon victims and all proceeds go toward this fundraiser. I will post the details as soon as I get them.
Rock Stars! Changing Colors week is such a fun week to explore the season of fall and all of the colors around us! We have leaves and rakes (in form of mini-dusting pans) to explore, umbrellas to help shield up from a thunderstorm, colored beanbags for group activity, songs to sing about colors, a wonderful story to read about a little tree who has a hard time changing his leaves’ to the right colors (Fall Is Not Easy), and we’ll even get to make our own tree with multi-colored leaves on them! We’ll have so much fun!
Superstars! We’re going to have a blast exploring the fall season and the many colors that surround us! You’ll each get to take a turn being a swaying tree in the wind while your classmates are the leaves swirling around you. We’ll escape from a thunderstorm using umbrellas to shield us, do a group activity with beanbags, rake leaves, sing songs about different colored objects, read a fun story about a little tree that has a hard time changing its leaves the right fall colors (Fall Is Not Easy), and you’ll even get to make your own tree using multi-colored leaves!
