Let's move on to the shape of the week.
Who remembers what the shape of the week is?
It has three sides.
Let's draw it on the board.
Okay, I think today I'll use the color green.
Let's draw our shape of the week on the board.
Remember, it has three sides.
You can count the sides with me as I draw it.
Okay, here we go.
It has one side, two sides, three sides.
One, two, three.
What shape is that?
Who remembers?
It's a triangle.
Can you say triangle?
Yes, it's a triangle and it has three sides.
Let's count the sides together.
One, two, three.
Again.
One, two, three.
It has three sides.
A triangle has three sides.
Can you say that?
A triangle has three sides.
Here's our triangle, shape of the week.
The shape of the week is triangle.
Yes, yes, yes, a triangle.
Now let's find out what the weather is.
What's the weather outside where you live?
Do you wanna look out your window?
Okay, I'll give you a little bit of time.
So what do you see?
Really?
Wow, well the weather where I live is,
let me look outside.
It's cloudy.
It's a cloudy day.
I don't see the sun.
I just see a lot of clouds.
It's a cloudy day today.
And it's just a little cold.
It is a little cold with this cloudy day today.
Let's see if we can find a picture that represents cloudy.
Let me get my weather bag.
I have my weather bag.
So I'll hold up the pictures and you tell me
which one is the cloudy picture.
Let's see if you can see these.
You can point to it.
Which one is cloudy?
You can point to it.
The one that has only clouds.
Oh yes, if you pointed to this one, you're correct.
This is the picture with clouds, only clouds.
This is my picture that represents cloudy.
It's a cloudy day out.
Let me put that up on our board.
So let's read it.
The weather is cloudy.
It's a cloudy day today.
Now we can get weather bear dress for the weather.
It's a cloudy day and it's a little cold.
So let's make sure weather bear is dressed warm
for the day, okay?
Great.
I have my weather bear bag.
Let's see what we're going to put on weather bear today.
Why don't we start with his shoes this time?
We can start with his shoes.
Okay, now it's a cloudy day, a little cold.
So do you think weather bear should wear his flip-flops?
These are his flip-flops.
Or he likes to wear these to the beach.
Or should he just wear his sneakers?
What do you think?
Oh, if you said sneakers, you're correct.
I think he should wear his sneakers too.
I agree because if he wears his flip-flops,
his toes might get cold.
I think he can save these for the beach.
Let's put sneakers on weather bear.
There you go, weather bear, sneakers.
Okay, let's see what else he should put on.
Oh, let's get his favorite pants.
What does he like to wear?
His blue jeans, that's right.
Okay, weather bear, there go your blue jeans.
Okay, it's a cloudy day and it's a little cold,
just a little bit cold.
Should he wear his raincoat or his jacket?
What do you think?
And his jacket zips all the way up.
Some may say a raincoat and some may say a jacket.
If it looks like it's going to rain,
he could wear his raincoat just to be safe.
But if there isn't going to be any rain
and it's just a little cold, he can wear his jacket.
What do you think?
Oh, okay, we can just put on his jacket.
We'll save the raincoat for another day, maybe a rainy day.
Okay, let's put on his jacket.
I think weather bear is ready.
I think he's ready for the day.
Oh, what's that?
Oh, you want him to put on his hat?
Oh, to keep his head warm?
Well, that's a good idea.
Since it's a little cold out,
maybe he would like to keep his head warm.
Okay, let's see if I can find his little hat that he has.
Here it goes, his little hat with the pom-pom on top.
Okay, weather bear,
now I think your head will be nice and warm.
Do you think weather bear is ready?
I think so too.
He is ready to go outside.
Thank you for helping me help weather bear.
He's all ready.
Bye, weather bear.
Now, I think we're ready
to pick our circle time song for the day.
Okay, I have our song cards.
Now, our song of the day is, this is what's on top.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
We have twinkle, twinkle, little star,
but also someone asked me
if we can sing the alphabet song again.
Would you like to sing the alphabet song again?
Yes, I would too.
Why don't we start with the alphabet song first,
and then we can sing twinkle, twinkle, little star second.
First, we'll sing the alphabet song,
and then we'll sing twinkle, twinkle, little star.
So let's do alphabet.
Today, we're going to sing the alphabet song
a little bit different than before.
We're going to sing it faster,
and we're also going to add a clap in there.
That's two claps like this.
So I'll say A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
then you clap two times, okay?
And then when you get it,
you can start singing and clapping with me.
So let's try it like this first.
First, I'll say the letters,
then you clap two times.
Let's try it slow first.
Okay, I'll say the letters.
Here we go.
Get ready, get ready.
Here we go.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
Clap two times.
Great!
Let's try that part one more time.
I'm going to say those letters,
and then you clap two times.
Here we go.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
Great!
Now, let's do the entire thing.
Follow me as I say the letters,
and I'll tell you when to clap.
Are you ready?
Get ready.
Here we go.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
Great!
H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P.
Clap, clap.

Clap, clap.
Y, and Z.
Now I know my ABCs.
Clap, clap.
Next time won't you sing with me?
Clap, clap.
Yes!
We'll sing again next time together.
All right, let's try it again.
This time I won't say clap, clap.
We're just going to do it.
Okay.
Are you ready?
Get ready.
Here we go.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G.
H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P.

Next time won't you sing with me?
Clap, clap.
You did it!
We did it together.
That's great, that's great.
Now let's sing it one more time,
but this time a little bit faster.
This is how we really sing it.
And it's okay if you don't get it the first time.
We're going to keep practicing this song, okay?
All right, let's try it together.
Ready?
Get ready.
Here we go.
A, B, C, D, E, F, G.

Next time won't you sing with me?
We did it!
We did it, we did it, we did it.
Now I know that was really, really fast.
And sometimes it takes a little practice before we get it,
but we will keep practicing.
Great try today!
Now let's slow it down.
Slow it down.
And we're going to sing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
Remember?
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Are you ready?
Get ready.
Here we go.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high.
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Great singing everyone!
