Emo Egg

 

Last week for Large Group, we talked about emotions.  We talked about how an emotion is a feeling and how we can often tell by the look on someone's face how they feel.  We met Emo Egg.  Emo goes to preschool just like we do.  We heard a story about Emo's day at preschool and we learned about different emotions he felt and how his face looked when he felt them.  We practiced identifying the emotions by looking at Emo's face and making those emotions with our faces.  

We also sang If You Chance To Meet a Frown holding our own egg faces and we turned our egg face when we sang about a frown and a smile.  

To practice using the "t" sound or the ticking sound in phrases, we also sang the song Oh I Wish I Were A Teeny Tiny Egg.

You can play an emotion game at home by showing your child different emotions on your face and have them guess how you might be feeling.  You can switch places and have them show the emotions on their face and you have to guess what emotion they are feeling.
