Good Afternoon!

Our morning consisted of our usual: welcome activity, sign in board, and breakfast!

The rest of our morning consisted of:

Habitrail play which can vary from moving out body throughout the environment to intricate building using various tools and manipulatives.

Reading using various sources such as YouTube. One of our favorite stories is ‘Mortimer’ by Robert Munsch. There’s a YouTube video where Robert Munsch reads the story aloud. Our friends LOVE his rendition of the story (they have it down to a T).

Creative play as well as the art table. We’ve been using the science area for light building lately that we incorporate into our play. The stools aren’t JUST stools.. .

Thankfully the rain held off as we headed outside for a morning full of movement and fresh air.

In large group, we read, ‘Being Frank’. We were talking about the book at the lunch tables because I was holding onto it. Someone said, “Who’s Frank?” Lucy responded, “You know? Like Frank Sinatra.”

During large group, ‘Being Frank’ was about a little boy who was honest to a fault. We found out though that sometimes being completely truthful about everything can sometimes hurt an adult or friends feelings. Throughout the story, Frank found a way to still tell the truth but make sure that he wasn’t hurting his friends feelings in the process.

A few of our large group comments:

“We better always tell the truth or that’s when Mommy and Daddy can put us in timeout!”

“It’s not nice to lie! I don’t do it.”

Breakfast– Whole grain oatmeal with honey and pears.

Lunch– Red pepper hummus on whole wheat bagels, strawberries/banana, and broccoli.

PM snack– Blue corn chips with refried beans.

Wee Sprouts– Cucumbers.

Have a fantastic night!
