Happy Friday!
We experimented with art materials this morning! We tried oil pastel and charcoal at the art easel. Some enjoyed playfully mixing and smearing materials. Some found the materials inspired them to make something specific. Arthur drew windows. As he smeared the charcoal, he came up with a story; there was a storm outside, the sky was very dark and the windows were closed keeping the rain, wind and bats outside!
Outdoors we enjoyed collecting leaves and other natural materials to make collages. We got to talk about symmetry vs asymmetry since several friends spontaneously created examples of each!
Breakfast– Brown rice cakes with peanut butter and banana.
Lunch– Ham and cream cheese rollups, whole wheat tortilla, fresh cantaloupe/pineapple/grapes, and fresh pepper/cucumber/carrot.
PM snack– Pretzels and block cheese.
Wee Sprout– Fresh pepper/carrot/cucumber.
Have a wonderful weekend!
