This second week in February we will be having our Friendship Party. The children will pass out their Friendship Cards on Tuesday (Bears, Eagles), Wednesday (Owls, Orcas) and Friday (Otters). The children will have a bag with their name on it that will be placed on the floor, in a circle, in the room next to the blocks area. During class the children will deliver their Friendship Cards and they will take their bag home with them. At home, you can look over the items in the bag to determine if there are things you would prefer your child not to have.
* Valentine Envelope:
Send in an addressed, stamped envelope and your child will make a Valentine to send to a special someone (Grandma, Dad/Mom at work, favorite relative…you choose). We will have the child make as many as needed and all month long.
* Friendship Card Bags:
We will have the bags set out in a separate room. During Free Play (Small Group/Bears) the kids will deliver their cards.
* Friendship Cards:
Bring in 20-22 cards (depending on your class roster) that are “signed,” but not addressed. We will deliver them after snack during free play. If you will not be in class, you can send the cards to class and we will deliver them for you.
Songs:
Teddy Bear
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear turn around
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear touch the ground
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear show your shoe
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear down goes you.
Wishy Washy Washer Woman
Way down in the jungle where nobody goes
Theres a wishy washy washer woman washing her clothes
She goes – oooh aaaaah, ooooh, aaaaah
That’s how the washer woman washes her clothes
Waddily ah-cha a goochie goochie gooh
Waddily ah-cha a goochie goochie gooh
That’s how the washer woman washes her clothes.
