Circle Time
Review – Start your preschool day with Circle Time and sing the “I Can Sit Down” song (Improvise your tune)
I can sit down as quite as can be.
I can sit down just to look at me.
I can sit down as quite as can be.
I can sit down just to look at me.
Then sing the “Hi There” song. (Improvise your tune)
Hi there, so glad you came.
Hi there, so glad you came.
Hi there, so glad you came.
One two three let’s shout HOORAY.
Hi there, so glad you’re here.
Hi there, so glad you’re here.
Hi there, so glad you’re here.
One two three let’s give a cheer. Yay
Next do your Special Help activity.
Look at the calendar and sing the “Days of the Week” song. (Tune of the “Adams Family”)
Well there’s Sunday and there’s Monday,
there’s Tuesday and there’s Wednesday,
there’s Thursday and there’s Friday and then there’s Saturday.
Days of the week. (Clap hands 2 times).
Days of the week. (Clap hands 2 times).
Days of the week. Days of the week. Days of the week. (Clap hands 2 times).
This is a great time to review the days of the week, months of the year and the number of the day. Then check the weather and compare it to your weather dial.
Discussion: The Four Seasons
This is one of the 4 starter themes so there are more directions written out and instead of you leading Circle Time I will lead it for you in the video provided.
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 about the Four seasons and the weather - Now Miss Cullen is going to tell you about the four seasons and show you pictures of each one. The first picture is of a sunflower. These only come out when it is really hot. This is for summer. The next photo is of leaves changing colors. This is fall. In the next photo you can see lots of snow and rain and it is very cold. This is winter. In the last season there are lots of new green things and flowers. This is called spring! Now Miss Cullen has a bag full of clothes. Together you can help Miss Cullen decide what season the clothes are for. The first piece of clothing is a short sleeved dress. When would you wear that? When it is sunny and warm – springtime! The second piece is swim trunks – you wear these when it is hot out so you can swim in the summer. The third piece is a long sleeved jacket with a hood – you wear this when it is cool and windy and the leaves are changing colors – fall. The last items are a hat and scarf – you wear this when it is very cold – winter. Good job.
