Good afternoon!
This morning we engaged in a loose parts activity with pom-poms and dominos. We worked on using the spoon and tongs to pick them up or used our hands to put them into our bowl or cup.
We then headed outside to engage in a variety of activities. Cece went down the slide on her tummy, a friend engaged in cooking in the housekeeping kitchen, several friends engaged in the water play activity, Charlotte and Eleanor helped water the garden plants, Eleanor drew with chalk on the chalkboard and several friends engaged in scooping and pouring the sand in the sandbox.
Breakfast: Overnight Oatmeal with cinnamon/sugar mixture and bananas.
Lunch: Farm fresh scrambled eggs with shredded Colby-jack cheese, fresh pear and red bell pepper slices and whole grain wheat English muffin with butter.

This morning we added four different shape components to the light table. Each could be used to make a hexagon when combined. Arthur enjoyed this activity and found ways to make hexagons out of triangles, diamonds and trapezoids. He even figured out how to make a hexagon out of a hexagon lined with trapezoids. The possibilities were vast!
We offered a range of sensory and imaginative play options. These experiences are valuable for all ages as they help regulate the nervous system, integrate the brain and provide open ended opportunities for imagination, creativity and social development.
Just before heading outside, we danced together, explored instruments, and played music body movement games. The group followed the prompts and acted out the songs together.
Other friends worked on creative drawings and letter kid spelling. Over all it was a busy and productive day!
Breakfast– Overnight oatmeal with cinnamon and fresh oranges.
Lunch– Farm fresh scrambled eggs with whole wheat tortilla, fresh pears/banana/cantaloupe, and fresh carrots/green beans/cucumber.
PM snack– Air popped popcorn with butter and raisins.
Wee Sprout– Fresh cucumber/carrot/green bean.

Good Afternoon!
Several kids in class have been very into mixing different substances experimentally. We have been trying some different things in response. Today, we tried mixing baking soda and water to make silver polish. The kids used tooth brushes to “polish their silver” in housekeeping. They enjoyed the experimental element of mixing different amounts of water and baking soda, then seeing how it could polish the surface of their cups, bowls and tea pot.
We hope you enjoy some more pictures from our day!
Breakfast– Kix cereal with fresh watermelon/pears.
Lunch– Melted shredded cheese quesadillas on whole wheat tortilla (with optional smashed avocado for dipping), fresh pears/oranges, and fresh cucumber/green beans/carrots.

We started our morning by building with waffle blocks or Magna-Tiles.
We then made our way to the kitchen for a sensory play activity with play dough. Our friends used various tools and golf tees to explore their play dough with.
We went outside to enjoy another beautiful day! We engaged in the housekeeping area with pans, played with our friends in the log house and enjoyed water play at the water table.

Today we explored a sensory painting activity designed for all ages including our new group moving up. Older kids enjoyed experimenting with mixing different amounts of flour into the paint to make it thick. Younger kids were engaged with using the paint to finger paint or to paint animals. Everyone got something that met their developmental level from this activity.
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures from our day!

This morning we engaged in the light table with the sensory cylinders and pom-poms. We explored the texture of the pom-poms in our hands and put them into the cylinders and worked on taking them out with our fingers.
We then engaged with dress up accessories and baby dolls.
We headed outside to play. Today we welcomed a new friend to our classroom with a sibling in the preschool classroom, who she was happy to see outside. We played inside the climbing house, worked on our bike riding skills on the balance bikes, engaged in the water table with shovels and containers to scoop the water into, and utilized a watering can to water the flowers. We also had connectors to build with in the water.

This morning our kids were asking right after breakfast if we could do more with chalk and water. We put together this activity in response. First, we added chalk of our color choosing to a bag and pulverized it with a wooden mallet. Next, we added water and mixed our chalk dust into a paste to paint with. We enjoyed testing our chalk paint on rocks, sidewalks and the big chalkboard. We painted all morning!

Good Afternoon!
This morning we all became very interested in chalk drawing. We began by using chalk of varying sizes on chalk boards indoors. Since it was popular and several friends still wanted to try it, the project evolved into an outdoor chalk water experimental art table. The range of ideas and outcomes was broad. Some friends used the water to write letters on the chalk boards with paint brushes. Some used the boards to play a Pictionary like guessing game with the rest of the table. Some were fascinated with drawing with chalk, adding water, mixing it and brushing it to see what would happen in a purely playful, curious way. Some began wondering what would happen if they dipped chalk in water, then if they soaked it in water. We love projects that ignite a chain reaction of questions, then playful experimentation in order to explore those questions. This is what leads to deep learning!
This morning we explored building shapes and arranging them in interesting ways on the light table. Several kids worked together to fit all the pieces together like a puzzle covering the entire table. This all builds early math skills as kids begin to notice how geometric shapes interact.
We hope you enjoy a few more pictures from our day!
