Good Afternoon!
This morning we explored an “every shape block building” activity. Friends were invited to use their creative problem solving to create with the materials at the table. One thing several friends became interested in was using the slotted pieces along with some round wooden chips. They found if they made an incline plane at the right angle, they could roll the chips down the slots. They all enjoyed a little applied physics in their play today!
In the art center we learned about a mixed media technique to experiment with. We tried making drawings with oil pastels and then painting over the top. We learned that the oil in the pastel repels the water in the paint…so a little science along with art.
Several kids continued their interest in maps and globes. We looked for places like America, India and the North Pole on the map!
Breakfast: Kix cereal with fresh watermelon.
Lunch: Brown rice with chicken, fresh pineapple/apple slices, and fresh cucumber/bell peppers.

Have a great day!
