Happy Friday!
Our hands were busy, our minds engaged, and our smiles wide—what a great way to end our week.
A glimpse into our day:
Daniel sat at the art table where he wrote various letters that he knows as well as an exclamation point! I asked if he knew how to use an exclamation point and he said no. So I told him that we use it in writing when we’re excited or when you talk louder than normal. His response? “So like when I talk about baseball!?”
Friends were scattered through the environment building various creations. At the circle table, Grady, Penny, and Z could be seen working together creating a chain. Penny and Z decided to create patterns within their chain. Penny’s pattern was blue-red-blue-red (she called this her America pattern) and Z’s pattern was green-red-green-red (she called this her Christmas pattern).
At the back of the house, Franklin and Sophia worked for over an hour creating a magnatile castle! They discussed different characteristics that they wanted their castle to have.
As we wrapped up our dirt and rock exploration, a big white sheet was put on the ground outside with a ton of dirt in the middle. Friends got a turn to sit and explore the dirt, finding things such as rocks, twigs, roots, spiders, and ants! They took their pencil and clipboard and drew what they saw.
Breakfast– Brown rice cakes with peanut butter and fresh pears.
Lunch– Melted shredded cheese on whole wheat flatbread, turkey, fresh oranges/apples, and fresh pepper/cucumber.
PM snack– Pretzels and string cheese.
Wee Sprout– Fresh pepper/cucumber.
Have a terrific weekend!
