Good Afternoon!

There was so much going on this morning! Children were diving into activities left and right.

To start their morning, Evie and Daniel got out the alphabet floor puzzle. They worked together and were able to complete it! When it came to finding what letter came next, they sang the alphabet up until the missing letter—what teamwork!

There were several building activities going on throughout the morning. Jack, Mack, and Grady worked together to build a ‘crystal tower’. Jack shared, “If we had built this with LEGOS, we would have used a LOT more LEGOS than magnatiles.” We talked about what building material is easiest to build with!

Speaking of LEGOS! The conversation we had lead friends to get out the LEGOS at the circle table! Daniel and Jack chatted prior to building to come to an agreement on what they’d like to build together.

At the art table, children used a different medium: chalkboard and chalk! Friends drew a variety of things: castles and dinosaurs seemed to take up the chalkboards mostly! They used a couple different shapes such as triangles and squares within their drawing.

“Our task is to help children communicate with the world using all their potential, strengths, and languages, and to overcome any obstacle presented by our culture.”
