Nathaniel had a good day today! This morning he played with the alphabet and number magnets, had fun showing off his dance moves, and kicked around a soccer ball on bikeside! We also got to touch a pineapple (and sample some) during circle time. It was a good day.

Nathaniel had a good day today! This morning he was really into looking at each of the picture books his friends have brought in. He really likes showing everyone “Running Guy” (in his own picture book) and pointing out that his hat is flying off. :) I think his other favorite part of the day was art time. He was very excited about drawing circles in the foam paint!

Nathaniel had a good day today. He still loves talking about Batman and “Running Guy” at various points throughout the day. :) This morning Nathaniel suggested I get out the yellow playdough and we got out some alphabet stamps. We had fun as we practiced learning the names of different letters. :) Nathaniel spent a large chunk of the morning doing playdough.

Nathaniel had a good day today! During outside time Nathaniel told me he was “Running Guy” and so I told him I was the lion and started up a game of chase. Soon everyone was pretending to be “Running Guys”! It was a ton of fun! We also spent some time reading books and he was looking at Brown Bear, Brown Bear. He opened it to the page with all the animals and named them off, “yellow duck, blue guy, purple guy,” then laughed and closed the book. He repeated that three more times. :)

Nathaniel had a good day today. We played a lot with letters, on the felt board and pressing them into playdough. We talked about what things start with certain letters. :) Nathaniel also had a blast foam painting today. We talked about what foods were each color and “fed the caterpillar” with different paint colors. Nathaniel really liked feeding him “pumpkin pie.”

Nathaniel was very sensitive today. He was in tears over many different things over the course of the day that normally wouldn’t bother him. We did manage to distract him with a few of his favorite things around the class – his picture book, cars, the plastic people, and art.

Nathaniel had a good day today. He loves going around singing “Na na na Backman,” then he says “Apie’s turn” and it’s my turn to say it. He likes going back and forth, each taking turns. :) Nathaniel also really liked playing with our ball machine today. He did a great job of identifying ball colors and loved playing with the yellow ball.

Nathaniel had a pretty good day. This morning he was carrying around a scarf for quite some time, but he did not seem too sure of what he wanted to do with it. He also spent a lot of time playing with I (classmate) today. When we were outside they were inseparable. Nathaniel and I (classmate) were communicating in words I couldn’t understand, but Nathaniel thought that whatever was said was hilarious. :)
