WF, Happy Birthday, Tate! 5/17/2016

Good Afternoon!

*Just a reminder, that GROUP B is going to the farm tomorrow which includes Tate, Anna, Rosemary, Lucy, and Max. We’re aiming to leave around 9:45 so please have your child here prior to that! Thanks!

*I’ll send out another reminder next week but we’re planning to have a PAJAMA DAY on FRIDAY, MAY 27TH.

We want to send a BIG Happy Birthday shout out to Tate! All the way from being three months at Wee Wee to now turning three years old! Wow how fast time flies.

The welcome activity that was made available for children this morning was marbles and ice cube trays. There were many different ways that friends manipulated this open ended activity.

Jackson and Eren helped Miss Melinda this morning retrieve some tent caterpillars that had taken up residence in one of our small trees outside. We brought them in and they are currently in an aquarium up in the front science area. We’re looking forward to watching them grow!

While the swimmers were off at the Y, the rest of us made homemade frozen yogurt cups with fresh fruit!

Everyone was a big help. Friends enjoyed contributing to our afternoon snack, which was a big hit!

In Kindergarten today:

We continued to dissect the calendar. Specifically, we talked about the days of the week. We split the days up into ‘at home days’ and ‘school’ days. Of course, the exception was brought up such as when we have a three day weekend!

Our journaling time is beneficial on many levels. Lately, friends have been trying their best to use kid spelling which allows children to build the skills they need to decipher between consonants and vowels.
