bats and job shadowing

This was my last week of job shadowing. Next week, they let me lead the class myself.

This week was bats. It's hard to be fall without being outright Halloween. Here is the counting song from today. I was thrilled to find one that didn't involved witches or gouls. It is from this site. I had trouble with Lou last week getting upset sharing the pieces to the felt board. It was rather embarrassing. Today we just used our hands for the counting. This worked much better.

Little Bats
1 little bat was trying to behave.
He hung upside down from his feet in a cave.
Another bat flew in, and said, "How do you do?"
The second joined the first, and then there were 2!
2 little bats were trying to behave.
They hung upside down from their feet in a cave.
To help pass the time, they sang "Do re me"
Another bat joined the song, and then there were 3.
3 little bats were trying to behave
They hung upside down from their feet in a cave
From their cave perch, they looked down at the floor,
A new bat joined the game, and then there were 4.
4 little bats were trying to behave.
They hung upside down from their feet in a cave.
One little bat zoomed inside and did a dive.
He stayed to take a rest, and with him there were 5.

Here's the craft from today. It's a little finger puppet bat. We'll be doing less 'pattern' projects in the upcoming months.
