Good Afternoon!

We are through chapter 9 in Charlotte’s Web in our K/PREK1 group! There were several conversations between Charlotte and Wilbur in this chapter that made us deep belly laugh! After we finished chapter 9, I read the title of chapter 10 which is ‘The Explosion’—we’ll read this tomorrow. First, we talked about what an explosion is which lead into what may ‘explode’ in chapter 10. There were several guesses that Charlotte’s web will explode…stay tuned to see if we were right!

In PREK2, children played alphabet bingo. Miss Kim said a letter aloud and they had to see if they had it on their bingo board and if they did, they covered that space up with a colorful counter!

Children took turns at the art table where they explored a frozen treasure bomb made with baking soda. Friends used a variety of materials such as a squirt bottle and liquid eye dropper to add vinegar to their treasure bomb. Slowly but surely, the treasure appeared as the frozen treasure bomb started to melt! A few friends noted the sounds they heard coming from the treasure bomb as the vinegar mixed with the baking soda.

The weather the next several days looks PERFECT for this time of year—we sure took advantage of this morning sporting our sunglasses and bright smiles.
