Today Wee Friends welcomed Miss Jennifer and the Blue Bus back to the block!

They worked on the Trapeze bar and the Octagon Barrel. On the bar, they practiced pike and “V” swings. Then they got to swing upside down like bats! On the octagon, they learned a backward walk over. They practiced rockers, too. At the end of class, each friend got steam rolled!

We spent a lot of our classroom time studying shapes with the pattern blocks and Magna-Tiles. We worked on putting several of one shape together to create another shape. Lisa guided friends in a shape exploration with jewels: friends matched the jewel to it’s likeness in a treasure box (board game).

Wee Sprouts: Carrots. Breakfast: Whole wheat toast with peanut butter and banana slices. Lunch: Whole wheat pasta with red beans, watermelon and roasted potato wedges. Snack: Cheese stix.
