Happy Wednesday!
Everyone was excited to finally taste the long awaited potatoes from this garden season. After digging up our potatoes yesterday, it was time to prepare them! Older friends got to dig them up, so younger friends got a chance to get involved in the potato project. Everyone who was interested got a chance to scrub the potatoes with a sponge until they were very VERY clean. They hardly needed to be peeled! It was voted on among our big kids that mashed would be the best way to prepare them (even though I strongly advocated for soup, I was wildly over ruled). At lunch time everyone got to taste the fresh mashed potatoes! Needless to say the potato bowls were scraped clean!
Big kids enjoyed several group games of go-fish on this rainy wet morning!
Our PREK2 journal group has been learning and growing! Name recognition is really catching on among all our young friends! A few friends have started to write part of or all of their names. Everyone has wonderfully creative descriptions of what they are drawing too!
