This morning Miss Melinda offered a musical activity. First the children listened and danced to some songs on a CD. Then they were given a rhythm stick to use as they walked throughout the house tapping their sticks on different items to check the different sounds they made. Afterwards she placed water at different levels in beakers and they tapped gently to listen for the different timbres.
For a sensory experience, the moon sand table and art easel were available for the children to enjoy digging and building castles or painting using long brush strokes to make lines down the paper.
The children were busy enjoying a good book, playing a board game together, building with the color viewer blocks in the new loft or building with magnatiles.
Breakfast: Corn Chex cereal and pears.
Lunch: No Nut butter sandwiches on multigrain bread, oranges, tomatoes and green beans.
Afternoon Snack: Toasted whole wheat bagel and colby jack block cheese.
Wee Sprouts: Green beans.
Have a great night!

Welcome Back!
FAB’s for the week:
Social Studies: K.2.3 Give examples of classroom and school rules and explain how each helps us.
Social Studies: K.2.1 Give examples of people who are community helpers (inside the classroom and outside the classroom) and describe how they help us.
First, a BIG thank you to Miss Tami and her husband, Charles, on another spectacular Wee Friends renovation. The habitrail and art area got a facelift including new shelving, colored wood on the walls, and a new small loft, among other things. We all loved exploring this morning to find new things in the environment. We appreciate all of your work!
We were all so happy to get back into our Wee Friends routine today! Friends moved throughout the house, observing the new additions before diving into their play.
The housekeeping area was busy all morning as children used several props within their play. Anna, Rosemary, and Tate gathered a few babies along with blankets and proceeded to read stories to them. As they were reading, Tate noticed a ‘T’ and said, “That’s a T for my name: Tate!”
There are also new bins for all of our toys! We had a group meeting pertaining to the rules with the new loft and allowing all of our friends to become acquainted with the new features, such as the new bins!
The new loft was utilized a lot this morning. As a group, we decided on what toys we should allow up in the loft. We came to the conclusion that the colored blocks would work well!
Jackson and Addi started a new sign in this morning that focuses on writing using writing strips. Since the sentence strips are somewhat new, I assisted Jackson by scaffolding his experience by demonstrating how upper case and lower case letters look like on the sentence strip. He took another colored marker and traced my letters, allowing him to get the feeling of the letters. Throughout the week, sentence strips will be made available so that we can become more comfortable using them.
Not only will the sentence strips help increase our writing experience but it allows us to work on spacing, capitalization, and letter formation.
We welcomed Tate and Lucy into our large group today! Jackson and Addi did a great job showing Tate and Lucy the procedure for going to large group as well as journaling.
We read a story together before making a list of some classroom rules that we follow here at school. After we made the list, we talked about why these rules are important. The consensus was that these rules keep us SAFE. A few friends shared personal stories about getting hurt and how it made them feel—“Which is why it’s important to follow the rules!”, stated a friend.
