Happy Friday!

There has been a lot of class interest in reading our collection of “Anansi the Spider” stories, which are retellings of old African folktales about a trickster spider.  We offered a project at the art center for older kids to make their favorite character out of pipe cleaners.  Kids could also make his web using a paper plate and yarn.  Some kids wanted to to take the project further and decorate Anansi’s legs with beads.  Others went on to make other characters from the story like Hyena and Little Bush Deer.  Some kids even enjoyed playing with their homemade characters, acting out the stories through imaginative play.

We hope you enjoy some more pictures from our day!

PREK2: We enjoyed some relaxing yoga poses and deep breathing in group today.  We read “The Family Book” which talked about different kinds of families.  At the end of group we counted how many people were in each of our families and wrote it on the board.
