Good Afternoon!

Our Thursday morning started with gross motor activity. Ellie worked on her jumping skills as she put her hands firmly on a level surface and jumped with her legs. Her feet went high into the air but she kept her balance. Also on her agenda this morning was dancing! She watched as her feet moved to the music. Chloe worked on wiggling through various holes in the jungle gym. She had to maneuver a few times but she accomplished her goal!

Children got a chance to paint this morning. Our patience and ability to sit at an activity is growing! We all did such a great job making beautiful artwork along with listening to directions and tips that teachers gave us such as using a variety of techniques (brush, hand, sponge, etc.).

We used different colors such as blue, orange, pink, and purple.

P.K. and Clara mixed different colors together as they painted.

P.K. noticed he got blue paint on her finger and he said, “Oh, No!”

Clara used all of the paint available! She loved getting the paint on her hands and then pushing her hands down on the paper.

Emma played with different animals as well as looking at her reflection in the mirror! She covered her eyes to hide from herself. She then popped her hands off her face and smiled. She is beginning to notice that when she covers her eyes, she can’t see anything! Emma had a great time playing this game.

For breakfast, children had kix and oranges. Lunch consisted of wonderful cheese ravioli and broccoli along with banana and bread. PM snack was apples and yogurt.

Have a great evening!
