NOTE: There’s a bug making its way through our classroom. It includes fever and vomiting.

WELCOME BACK LEA! Lea has returned from Hawaii and we are so glad to see her!

The morning kicked off with a small group of friends mastering an alphabet puzzle. Aislinn, Owen and Leo worked at piecing three letters together to form a picture.

We gathered our whole classroom together to show and explain the ecosystem we created yesterday at the farm. Lisa read a book called A Place for Frogs by Melissa Stewart. We discussed pond life and then dove into a creative drama sensory exploration about tadpoles, frogs and pond life.

Wee tadpoles caught flies with their tongues, felt the spritz (spray bottle) of dew falling on their bodies, had a fly (plastic math chain) buzz around and dip into their ears and lastly, a beetle (soft, snuggly pillow) hug. Oh! And a froggy treat: a bit of banana!

Friends gathered at the art table to trace letters and create words with them. Or works of letter art.

We continue to enjoy this amazing weather!
