That tricky Leprechaun!

 
Throughout the entire center the homework assignment for March was to create a Leprechaun trap! 

We are so impressed with what our children and their families came up with!!!

 
















 
 
The children were so proud and enjoyed showing and explaining how their traps worked to their classmates and teachers. The children made sure to set up their traps throughout the classrooms before they went outside, just in case a Leprechaun came into the room...
 
Sure enough, as soon as they left the room the Leprechaun was up to some shenanigans...
 
 
He left a trail of footprint, glitter, shamrocks and balloons...
 
 
He knocked over chairs and hung up streamers...
 
 
He even used the children's bathroom!!!
 
 
What a tricky little fellow!!!
 

Maybe next year we will finally catch that Lucky the Leprechaun!

Dr. Seuss

Haverhill Daycare is celebrating Read Across America and Dr. Seuss' Birthday!
 
 
We are hosting a spirit week for all of our students!
 
  
 Monday - Cat in the Hat Day!
We are asking all students to wear their favorite hat to school.

Check out our Cat in the Hat inspired learning activities!
Cat in the Hat colors cup stacking! The children are using their engineering skills to build with red cups and white slips of paper. They are also working on math concepts by building patterns and counting how many they can stack until their tower falls.


Left:The children are working their fine motor muscles by using tongs to make cat hat patterns with pom poms. Right: Cat in the Hat name hats! The children not only made patterns but wrote each letter of their name on a different color for some letter recognition practice.

Tuesday - Fox in Socks Day!
We are asking all students to wear
their fun / most colorful socks.

We made these socks to put on fox after reading, Fox In Socks. These socks aren't plain and blue, sir. They are new and fun to view, sir!
 
Wednesday - Wacky Wednesday!
We are asking all students to wear a wacky (backwards/mismatched/inside out) outfit and/or a wacky hairdo.
 
Thursday - Green Eggs and Ham Day!
We are asking all students to please dress in the color green and we will serve green eggs and ham for lunch.

Cheri did a great job preparing the green eggs!
 
The students graphed the results of their taste test!
 
 Green Eggs and Ham tic tac toe! The children have to use cognitive skills and social skills such as sharing and taking turns to play this activity.


Green pom pom of all sizes sorting with tweezers.

Friday - Oh, The Places You'll Go Day!
We are asking all students to wear a vacation or a location shirt. We will also have a photo booth set up in room 3 (Jasmine's room) to take a Seuss inspired photo!
 
 
 
The children got to enjoy a special treat for the last day of spirit week!

Other Dr.Seuss books that the
teachers read this week...
The children created their own Wocket and had to write a sentence on where they would bring it on an adventure.


The children did a great job putting together a variety of different Dr. Seuss floor puzzles.

 
Seussical sculptures!

 
Handprint Horton's, made by the three year olds!

 
The Pre-K are rolling the dice to write their own Seuss inspired stories.

We hope everyone has had lots of fun and we are looking forward to continually instilling a love for literacy in all of our students!
