First Week of October: Things that Grow












Our composer for the Month of October was Mozart. We learned about how Mozart played the violin and the piano and how he started playing the piano and writing music when he was only 5 years old. We also learned that one of the songs he composed "Ah-Vous Dirai-je, maman" is a tune that we recognize as "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". The kids had fun scarf-dancing to a Mozart rendition of Twinkle Twinkle.
































During the month of October we studied "Things that Grow". We started off the month by learning about the life cycle of a bean and the kids each chose a seed of their own to plant. We planted: raddishes, carrots, and onions. We have spent time each preschool day this month checking on our plants and watering them and currently everyone has something pushing up through the soil in their square so they are very excited about this.
