Who Hid the Mummy?

We learned a new song this week at the beginning of large group for autumn!!

              Leaves are falling all around
              On the housetops,
              On the ground,
              Leaves are falling on my nose,
              On my head and hands and toes!

There is a link at the bottom of this post if you would like to know the melody. There are a ton of awesome vocabulary words embedded in that super short song.

After singing and talking about autumn, we played a game where we hid a Halloween Mummy and then found it.

Ms Amanda/Bee told us that when she got to school, she noticed that someone had taken her mummy out of hid bed and had HID it. So then we played a game where we closed our eyes and Ms Amanda/Bee hid the mummy behind one of us. We then patted our legs while we chanted.....
     "Who took the mummy from the mummy's bed?"

We then took turns guessing who had taken it.  If we couldn't remember the name of the kid we wanted to guess, or could not say it, we used a picture on the iPad to point to that said the name of the kid we were guessing.

If we had the mummy we would say "Yes, I have the mummy!" or if we didn't have the mummy we said "No, I don't have the mummy."

We had fun guessing who had the baby and then at the end, we put the mummy back in his bed so he could take his nap.

This week we also started talking about our quiet "Horse Sound" ---- /h/. We put our hands in front of our mouths so we could feel how that sound feels HOT!
