Good afternoon!
We started off our morning by reading some books that were donated to our classroom. One of the books we read was “Never Touch A Dragon,” and our friends took turns feeling the different textures on the pages.
Some of our friends took a break from reading books to head into the kitchen for a loose parts activity. We were given a tray with wooden shapes, a wooden occupation figurine and miniature farm animals. Our friends asked, “What’s that?” to inquire what occupation each of their figurines had. Other friends stacked their wooden shapes to make a tower and then watched as it lost its balance.
We also brought down a basket of bugs and a basket of waffle blocks for our friends to play with. We identified the different kind of bugs we were engaging with. Eleanor pretended that her bug was climbing “up” the wall, like in the Itsy Bitsy Spider song. Our friends collaborated together to build a path out of the waffle blocks and then took turns walking on it.
Breakfast: Whole grain Cheerios cereal with fresh orange slices.
Lunch: Whole grain tortilla with peanut butter, 1/2 slice of mozzarella cheese stick, fresh blueberries and cucumbers.
\Afternoon Snack: Whole grain wheat bagel with cream cheese.
