Good Afternoon and Happy March!

This morning Ellie and Caroline experimented with a science activity that involved magnets. They would take the small round circles with the magnetic wands and move them around on their colorful trays. Marbles were also part of this fun activity!

We then headed outside for some fun in the sun! We did have some briskness to the air, but we LOVED every second being outdoors. We also really enjoyed engaging with some friends in the preschool classroom.

Breakfast: Whole wheat toast with butter and pineapple and banana.

Lunch: Whole wheat pasta with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese, carrots and pears.

Good Afternoon!

K/PREK1 children dove into the story, ‘The Day The Crayons Came Home’. We’ve read, ‘The Day The Crayons Quit’ which is the first story around this theme. We talked about letters and what’s included. Penny asked what the address portion of the postcard is used for.

Afterwards, each child picked a white piece of paper with an image on it. They looked at the patterns on the chalkboard and figured out what pattern their white card completed. Once they completed their pattern by taping the piece of paper at the end, they stated the pattern aloud. For instance, Grady had the green, blank circle and relayed the pattern: “Full circle, blank circle, full circle, blank circle, full circle, blank circle”.

K.CA.5: Create, extend, and give an appropriate rule for simple repeating and growing patterns with numbers and shapes.

After reading ‘Parker Looks Up’, PREK2 children graphed which image they liked best. According to the graph, children preferred the ‘Michelle Obama’ image more than slimy fish, jeweled necklace, and horses.

The morning activity focused on different shapes made out of colored tape. Children took it upon themselves to trace the shapes using colored gems. Penny used her gems and implemented a pattern along the triangle.

Oh my goodness, did the fresh air feel FANTASTIC! We were so excited to get outside and loved having open spaces to run and explore. The weather outlook for the week looks extremely promising!

Breakfast– Whole wheat bagel with butter and fresh pears.

Lunch– Whole wheat pasta with marinara sauce and shredded cheese, fresh oranges/banana/apple, and fresh snap peas/cucumber.

PM snack– Whole milk yogurt with banana.

Wee Sprout– Fresh snap peas/cucumber.

Have a wonderful evening!

Good Afternoon.

We added a little cold excitement to our sensory table today! Since it has been so very cold for us to go outside and play in the snow, we brought the snow into us!  

Friends were so excited! We spoke about the temperature of the snow, the color of the snow and if we could eat the snow!

We then decided to have a dance party and incorporate the shakers into our play. We had a great day!

Breakfast: Whole grain brown rice cakes with peanut butter and pineapple.

Lunch: Whole wheat bread with no nut butter, mixed veggies, and apples.

Snack: Pretzels and cheddar block cheese.

Have a great weekend.

Hello!

We want to wish Sophia a HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY! We hope you had the best day!

In K/PREK1, we read ‘Stick and Stone’ which is from our MACK book collection. Throughout the story, Stick and Stone help each other out in certain ways. For example, Stick held a bubble wand so that Stone could blow the bubbles. Without Sticks help, Stone wouldn’t have been able to do this because he doesn’t have arms.

We talked about different attributes that each character had such as Stone being wider and Stick who is taller. We discussed how these attributes help them as well as prohibit them from doing activities or movements.

K.M.1: Make direct comparisons of the length, capacity, weight, and temperature of objects, and recognize which object is shorter, longer, taller, lighter, heavier, warmer, cooler, and holds more.

After breakfast, Miss Kim read ‘Rosie Revere Engineer’. Children have been interested in space lately so we explored the concept of movement using a variety of tools including balloons, straws, tape, paper, and markers.

Friends blew up their balloon and created their own rocket to see how they move.

Breakfast– Kix and fresh banana.

Lunch– Brown rice with shredded beef and cheese, fresh pineapple/banana, and fresh carrots/cucumber.

PM snack– Sophia’s birthday treat: oatmeal raisin cookies with string cheese.

Wee Sprout– Fresh carrots/cucumber.

Have a great night!
