Welcome to another beautiful day!
Today we created water bead marble runs! In a bin filled with water and water beads, we worked independently, or with our teacher to make marble runs. We used turkey basters to suck up the water beads and squirt them down the marble runs. We also used scoops and bottles to fill with the beads and poured them down the runs, watching the cause and effect of what we made.
Since the water beads were so popular, we set up a couple of personal water bead activity trays for further exploration. There were a variety of trays, scoops, jars and spoons to use for any imaginative ideas we had for the beads.
We had a blast outside in this lovely spring day. Some of our older friends went on a short walk (see blog link) around the neighborhood. Then we added some water in our kitchen area. A friend set up a restaurant that served milkshakes and coffee. He gave Ms. Kim three cups of coffee. Apparently she must have looked very tired, so he thought she needed that many. Haha!
Ms. Linsey brought in large toy dinosaurs for the sandbox. They took chunks of sand and stuffed the dinosaurs mouth with their “food.” Others created a made up scenario in which the bad dinosaurs (carnivores) attacked and ate the nice dinosaurs (herbivores).
