Good Afternoon!
Marina started off her morning with multiple activities. First, she worked on patterns along with shapes and colors. She requested the pattern boards right when she walked in the door. We talked about different colors and where to put it on the pattern board. She then moved to foam puzzles where she decided if the animal or object belonged in the ocean or the farm.
Marina joined P.K. in the kitchen where they worked with green play-dough. P.K. also brought a book into the kitchen where he looked at the pictures while Marina used tools to hammer the play-dough.
Many of our friends worked with bouncy balls outside this morning. Different actions took place including throwing and kicking the ball.
Ellie asked Miss Mindy if she would throw the ball high up in the tree and touch the branches. We watched as the ball went into the tree and came back down.
Chloe and Ellie enjoyed going down the slide. Since the sun was shining down on the slide, they noticed that the slide was hot if you touched it!
Elizabeth made a special birthday cake in a cup. She went to go get a pail and the handle was stuck! She asked for help and once it was fixed, she very politely said, “Thank you Mindy.”
To find some shade, friends went under a small tree to play together.
P.K. went into the play house where he opened the door and window really fast to say ‘”hi!”
Miss Laurie brought out a special friend: Miss Piggy! We talked to her about various things.. We all talked about giving Miss Piggy soft touches instead of hard touches. Children gave her kisses on her nose and soft, gentle touches.
P.K. rode the teeter totter. He started gently falling off on purpose! He would laugh, stand up, and dust himself off. He hopped right back on!
For breakfast, our friends enjoyed Chex and bananas. AM snack was carrots. Lunch consisted of tortilla bread sandwiches with melted cheese, mixed fruit, and broccoli. PM snack was rice cakes with cream cheese, apples, and a strawberry banana smoothie.
Have a super evening!
