Tammy at Learning Landing Pre-school

We have had an exciting week in preschool.  Tuesday, April 9th, a friend of mine, who teaches self defense and Karate came for a visit.  She and a coworker talked to the kids about stranger danger and self defense.  All the kids just loved getting a turn to kick at a cushion the teachers were holding!  The kids got to "kick, punch, punch", and repeat.  Then we as teachers, would pretend to be a stranger at a grocery store, pick up a child and have them yell, "You are not my mommy,(or daddy) and scream and kick their legs.  It took a while for the kids to warm up and have fun with yelling.  The only time Miss Tammy will let them yell and scream inside the house!  I think it's pretty fun to see them breaking the rules! 
Well, S is for stranger danger, spring, sheep, and soup.  We focused mostly on sheep and spring time. For the art project of the week, we glued felt onto blank sheep to give them their "wool". I taught the kids that the soft fur on sheep is called wool, and one girl said to me, "it's called fleece".  I responded yes, we can call it both.  Smart kids!
