Big Truck Night

YAHOO! On Tuesday the pre-k had a big truck night. There were a lot of big trucks for the kids to see and climb on and in. One of the vehicles there was a book bus, and all the kids got a free book. There was also bucket truck that took some of the teachers up really high, I was one of the lucky ones. Scary! It was a lot of fun. The kids enjoyed watching there teachers going up that high. Right before I went up in the truck one of the kids said to me "Miss Jessie, don't be scared...just smile!" haha it was great. And most of them yelled "Miss Jessie, Miss Jessie ( I would look down on them) Don't look down!"

Killerpillar!



I am back working at the school this yea, I am in the all day Pre-K class. Right now we are in the middle of learning about caterpillars and how they turn into butterflies. All this week we had been reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The kids got to make there own hungry caterpillar, we had a circle for each day and then they clued a picture of the food the caterpillar ate that day. They also got to try the food themselves. Then we clued all the circles together to make a big caterpillar. On Monday the kids will tell there reading buddies about the book.

We also have five monarch caterpillars in the class room and we are going to watch them make there chrysalis. The kids have really enjoyed watching them eat through all the leaves and get bigger and bigger. I over heard one of the kids the other day call it a killerpillar, I can't stop calling them that now.

Tacy and I decided to go on a killerpillar hunt for a swallowtail caterpillar, but we had no luck but we did find, a big monarch and a tiny green one that will eventually turn into a moth.( lame)


Other than school, I don't have much going on in my life. I had a few Tupperware parties since I started selling but not a ton. Which is nice because I am so done with the day after school. I will try and post when I do fun things, but don't judge me If all I have to post is things that we are doing in pre-k. We are having big truck night coming up so maybe ill post about that.
