Happy Monday! Hope everyone’s weekend was spectacular!

**This upcoming Friday (March 22nd), we’ll be having a development professional come out to do an in-service with the teachers at Wee Wee Friends. She’ll be helping us to determine certain milestones that each child should be achieving and the development of children in general. We wanted to make parents aware that she will be coming into our classroom for a few hours in the morning. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! Thanks!

Today, we started off the day with calm play. This helped us to get into the day and settle in.

P.K. and Eve headed into the kitchen where they worked with tongs and fluff balls. They both worked on their fine motor skills and colors as well!

Music was turned on at the request of our friends! P.K. moved the scarf over his head while Eve moved her body to the left and to the right.

Eve and Emma pointed out their favorite fish as they went swimming by.

Gross motor occupied our afternoon. We enjoyed standing on the colored cubes and jumping off of them!

Clara took two circular mats and put them together. She slid down the slide and went under the bridge like structure that she built! Friends loved following her lead.

Language and book reading took up a good portion of our morning before lunch time. We’re doing a better job at getting a book to read and then taking care of that book when we’re done reading it. Taking ownership for our toys is very important!

Emma and Clara worked on their ballet today using the ballet bar! They enjoyed practicing different moves and perfecting their balancing skills.

Daniel said, “Two hats!” Everyone looked and Daniel had put two hats on his head!

For breakfast, children had kix and apples. AM snack was corn. Lunch consisted of whole wheat noodles with tuna, peas, and a mixture of banana and pineapple. PM snack was whole grain crackers and cheddar cheese slices.

Have a terrific evening!
