Bite Size Preschool! (Yellow and the Number 7)

Remember the days of going into a big box store and getting one of those cute samples on a napkin or in those little plastic cups? Well think of this as your little, delectable sample of preschool! These "bite size" one time classes introduce your student to a preschool setting where each class focuses on a specific color and number. But that's just the base of this class! We will incorporate other preschool skills such as basic directional skills (up, down) in a social atmosphere while using dramatic play (think squeezing cut out paper oranges to make "orange juice" while counting the oranges we put in the cup,) and art projects, games and songs to introduce students to the color and number in a variety of different ways. Each student learns their best in different ways, so in my classes I focus the topics (on one color and one number) but present them in a variety of ways to improve retention.  

So, what is in THIS specific class? This class focuses on the color yellow and the number 7. The class starts with a color song set to a familiar tune to introduce the color-yellow. We will talk about and show a favorite yellow item the student has from their house in a show and tell setting. We will do a search for the number of the week-7, and practice writing the number 7 using proper pencil grip. We will play a game where students will help me find suns with the number 7 on them which I will squirt with a water bottle to "cool" them off.  Then we will finish class with an art project where we use a balloon dipped in yellow colored shaving cream to make 7 suns on a paper.
