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.
Today we are going to talk all about what Earth looks like from Outer Space! We live on the planet Earth and Miss Cullen is going to talk about the Earth today. See the picture that Miss Cullen holds up? Notice the different colors on the Earth - blue, brown, green and white. Blue is the water – all the oceans and lakes. Brown is the land. Green is where the trees, grass and plants are. White is formed by the clouds. Good job recognizing all of the colors.

Today we are going to Color the letter C with Crayons because the word color and the word crayons start with the letter C. Make sure to point that out to your children. You can give each child the letter C pattern or you can trace it and cut it out of construction paper. Put out a bunch of different colors of crayons and allow children to color their C however they'd like to.

You can say, “We are going to make a snake out of pipe cleaners today. You can choose two colors to make your snake. Why do you think we are going to make a snake? Was there a snake in our story? You can make a sneaky snake or a happy snake, it is up to you.”
Have children choose two colors of pipe cleaners and twist them together. Of course, if they'd rather use one color and twist them together that is fine as well. You can use the wiggly eyes, but they are very hard to glue on and have them stay on so you may want to make eyes with construction paper and use a glue stick to put them on. I think they still look like snakes without eyes, but it’s up to you.

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!

Beware, this is a MESSY project. Make sure to find a spot outside covered in newspaper to do this one! Get a pair of cheap panty hose and cut off the legs. Fill the bottom with beans, rice or popcorn kernels and tie a knot so they don’t fall out. Add paint to the pie tin or cookie sheet and dip the bean filled panty hose in the paint. Give your child a big piece of white paper. Standing over the paper, have the child let the bean filled end of the panty hose drop and hit the paper. This will leave behind a cool design. If you use different colors of paint you can create an even cooler design! Click here or click "prep video" above to watch my video on Painting Earth!
Note, you have the flexibility to do a different art activity rather than the suggested idea.
