Our Tuesday was an overall active, constructive, and eventful day.

Different activities occurred throughout the day. By friends choosing what activity they would like to participate in, learning occurs naturally.

Starting with:

Puzzles.

Building.

Seeing the world in different colors.

Moon sand!

Pretend nap time.

Wood working. (Using nails, wood, and a hammer to make…a hammer!)

The play that our friends were involved in today had a direct and specific purpose.

“Children learn as they play. Most importantly in play, children learn how to learn.”

Kindergarten: Today our kindergarten students began making alphabet books. This is a longer term project that will probably take a few weeks to finish! Elizabeth and Elliott chose which paper they wanted to use, figured out how many letters were in the alphabet and how much paper they would need. They each titled their book using kid spelling— “Learning Book” and “Reading Book.”

                               

Wee Sprouts: Red and orange peppers. Breakfast: Whole Grain Cheerios and bananas. Lunch: Whole wheat flat bread with refried beans and cheddar cheese, fresh broccoli and apples. Snack: whole grain bagels with cream cheese.

Have a terrific evening.
