Neighborhoods are full of places to go and things to do.  Some people live in neighborhoods.

Many neighborhoods have restaurants where people can go to eat.

“Five Little Bratwurst”

We will go to Rudy’s for lunch! We will leave at 11:00 and return by 12:30.

We will write a letter to Grandma and Grandpa Pavela and walk to the mailbox to mail it.

Neighborhoods are full of community helpers.

Fire Engines by Anne Rockwell

We will get to see a real firetruck today at 9:30.

Changes to the Environment

The dramatic play area will be a bakery. For art we will create glue stick collages and we will dump and pour rice in the sensory table.  We will build with the Mega Blocks for construction play.  For small motor play we will work with the small peg boards and we will do a bean bag toss for large motor play.

Dawn will be gone on Tuesday.
