A New Year With Mother Goose Time

We just started a new school year and will be using Mother Goose Time as our main curriculum this year.  For the month of September we are learning about friends and feelings and also just getting used to class rules and routines.  
On our first day the kids made friendship puppets with googly eyes and feather hair.
They practiced writing or tracing their names on their monthly name tags.  They get new ones every month, and at the end of the year I give them all back so see how their writing has progressed.  
This week the kids worked together to draw a classroom map where they could add and decorate their own houses.  
Every monthly box from Mother Goose Time comes with a new theme poster.  The kids used the look and find glasses to find the different faces and complete the tasks on the back of them.  
We made apple trees by tracing hand prints on paper and then adding paint and apple stickers.  
One of the letters we're working on this month is F.  The kids created their own letter F books and practiced tracing the letter F.  We will do more work with this letter throughout the month.
 We finished up the week by making friendship headbands and learned about being kind.
