Many times, when we have created an imaginary world, friends will later repeat the story exactly as they previously told it. Today was no different. The request was made to rebuild the plane and friends fell into their roles and activities, exactly where they left off yesterday. A new storyline emerged on board today: mommies traveled with their babies.

We always offer friends music to listen to or sing as they play. Today’s inflight music selections were calming and soothing to our passenger’s ears. Most friends now have “their” song that they request as they create.

In another part of the classroom, friends learned and reviewed the colors of a streetlight, a stop sign and a yield sign. They used miniature cars around the table following the speed  and direction of the traffic signals.

Letter studies were happening all over the classroom today! With ink/letter stamps and crayons/sand boards, friends explored their letters. Connections popped up right and left and were expressed when they recognized a letter.

Yesterday, friends painted a new set of alphabet letters. When Mel held one letter up at a time, friends shouted out their guess.

Other moments of our morning were spent reading, creating habitats under the habitrail, rehearsing Thumbelina, counting teeth and learning to live peacefully in a wee society.
