In this activity, Miss Cullen interactively starts the day and introduces the four parts of Circle Time: Special Helper, Calendar, Today’s Weather and the Theme Discussion. You may click the this link or the "Extra Content" button about to watch the video.
After Miss Cullen introduces a part of Circle Time she announces and holds up a “Teacher Helper Time” sign. You should pause the video and lead the class offline through that part of Circle Time. When you are done click play on the video to continue to the next part of Circle Time.
Here is a great website with pictures and information about butterflies. You can read the information and look at the pictures before you get started so you have an idea of what you'd like to teach.
Today we are going to talk all about Butterflies! Click here or the "Extra Content" button and watch my video as we do our Circle Time together!
Sing Along with Miss Cullen
Butterfly Song
Flitter, flutter Butterfly,
Flying in the big, blue sky.
Flutter high and flutter low,
Flutter fast and flutter slow.
Flitter, flutter butterfly,
Flying in the big, blue sky.
Itsy Bitsy Spider Song
The Itsy Bitsy Spider went up the water spout.
Down came the Rain and washed the Spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
And the Itsy Bitsy Spider went up the spout again.
Bug Song
Oh I wish I were an incey wincey spider – clap clap
Yes I wish I were an incey wincey spider – clap clap
I’d go creepy, creepy crawly up your hall and down your wally
Oh I wish I were an incey wincey spider – clap clap.
Oh I wish I were a yellow honey bee – clap clap
Yes I wish I were a yellow honey bee – clap clap
I’d go buzzy, buzzy, buzzy and my stripes would all be fuzzy
Oh I wish I were a yellow honey bee – clap clap.
Oh I wish I were a wiggly caterpillar – clap clap
Yes I wish I were a wiggly caterpillar – clap clap
I’d go munchy, munchy, muncy and the leaves would all be crunchy
Oh I wish I were a wiggly caterpillar – clap clap.
Bonus Videos! If you choose at the end of Circle Time play one or both of these song videos: Itsy Bitsy Spider and Bug Song. In both of these song videos Miss Cullen interactively sings the song with the class. When finished start the next activity on your daily schedule.

Miss Cullen announces it is “Art Time” and holds up the “Teacher Helper Time” sign. At this time you stop the video then lead the class offline through an art project related to today's weather theme. Remember to check the prep video first to learn what materials you will need!

Since we have been learning about butterflies I thought it would be fun to color a butterfly. Allow children to color it however they'd like.
