Literacy:   
-AT
Go out and look for the "cat" while we gather leaves.  See if we can find the mat outside and any other at word.  Discuss the animals that have "at" in their name.
Go inside and color the leaf while under a white peice of paper. Have children create something that is an "at" word with the leaf (bat, cat, mat, rat etc).  Show each other what was created.

Monster magnents on cookie sheet.. Take away when they close eyes, and see if they can figure out how many are missing.. Sort them.
