Fabulous Friday!
The kinetic sand was such a huge success that Ms. Linsey brought it back. This time she brought in acorns, silver trays, and natural bowls for them to include in their explorations. Hannah made acorn soup with hers. Others formed theirs into balls to be “candy.”
The art table was empty, so Ms. Linsey got out pieces of cardboard and tempera paint. She poured blue, yellow, and red paint into the trays. Our friends did several paintings using these colors. Some of them even mixed them together to create other colors.
Breakfast: Brown rice cakes & banana
Lunch: Wheat flatbread w/ chicken lunchmeat, carrots, & watermelon
PM Snack: Pretzels & block cheese
Wee Sprout: carrot chips

Good Afternoon!
We began our morning by building with Magna-Tiles. Friends were very focused as they were creating their Magna-Tile building creations. Several friends added Little People to their buildings.
Eliza and Hannah were busy rolling/tossing their balls with Miss Bekah.
Since the air temperature with the real feel was too cold for our little bodies, we brought snow inside for us to experience. We added animals, Little People, vehicles and a bowl to enhance our play in it. Several friends mentioned their hands were cold when they were finished playing in it, so we warmed them up.
Breakfast: Corn Chex cereal with fresh orange slices.
Lunch: Whole grain brown rice with butter and red beans, fresh pineapple and cucumbers.
Afternoon Snack: Sunflower seeds and Triscuits.
Have a terrific evening!

It is cold outside!
Despite the cold, our friends were eager to go out as soon as they could. They had more fun with making a snowman, riding the sleds, and rolling it into snowballs.
A few of our friends got out the puzzles this morning to start their day. It is fun watching them slowly work their way up to the increasingly difficult ones. You can see them trying to problem solve on their faces.
We brought a little bit of the beach inside through our kinetic sand play. Our friends selected gems and beads to add for decorations. There were cups and measuring utensils they used to form shapes into their creations.
Breakfast: Cheerios & banana
Lunch: Brown rice w/ beef, green beans, & pineapple
PM Snack: Triscuits & peanuts
Wee Sprouts: fresh green beans

Happy Snowy Wednesday!
This morning we began by going in several different directions in the classroom. Hannah and Paige engaged with the bulldozer and airplane. Paige added Little People to hers and was having them do cannonballs into the basket. Dax engaged with tossing the balls, Eliza was busy putting the color rings over her head and Ben and Emily were engaged looking at books on the reading step.
We then danced to several songs that had us Freeze our bodies when the music stopped. We love those songs and they were: Freeze dance by Greg and Steve, The Wiggy, Wiggy Wiggles by Hap Palmer and the Party Freeze Game.
Eleanor was focused on her brother, Arthur while he was sitting near her shaking her rattle on her playmat. She also was listening to the crinkling sound she was making with her hands as she felt her book.
Breakfast: Overnight Oatmeal with cinnamon/sugar mixture and fresh strawberries.
Lunch: Farm fresh scrambled eggs, fresh cucumber slices, fresh pear slices and toasted English Muffins with butter.
Afternoon Snack: Refried beans on whole grain wheat flatbread.
Have a wonderful evening!

Terrific Tuesday!
K.RF.3.1: Identify and produce rhyming words.
Our Kindergarteners practiced their rhyming words this morning through their sign-in. They had a container with eight objects in it. They picked an object, and then came up with a word that rhymes with it. Some of the words they selected were real words, but some were made up. They channeled their inner Dr. Seuss.
“It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves, that will make them successful human beings.”
-Ann Landers
Our friends were drawn to the table today to explore the tubes, elbows, and pompom balls set out for them. They quickly became little inventors. They experimented with creating different structures, and even working together to make a large creation. Over time, they discovered they could blow into it to make musical instruments. With continued play, they also found out they could talk into it for their friends to hear.
This activity is a prime example of the power of letting children learn and explore on their own. They came up with so many creative ways to build and learn.
Breakfast: Kix & Oranges
Lunch: Whole wheat bread w/ PB, block cheese, cucumbers, & pears/apples
PM Snack: Whole wheat bagel w/ cream cheese & string cheese
Wee Sprouts: Fresh cucumbers

Good Afternoon!
This morning we created a colorful drawing of dots with our dot markers. We all loved the loud noise we made as we dabbed the markers onto our paper on the trays.
Miss Tina brought out the waffle blocks from the kitchen for the friends to use for building. We worked to connect them together to make a line, a cube and create a pattern with them.
We then bundled up into our winter gear and headed outside for some fresh air. Our friends love to see and interact with their siblings outside. We explored the little bit of snow we found and went down the slide.
Breakfast: Kix cereal and fresh pear slices.
Lunch: Peanut butter on whole grain wheat tortillas, fresh strawberries, red bell pepper slices and 1/2 of a mozzarella cheese stick.
Afternoon Snack: Whole grain wheat bagels/English muffins with butter and cinnamon/sugar mixture and fresh apple slices.
Have a terrific evening!

Good Afternoon!
This morning we began by taking care of a need for our baby dolls. We worked at getting them dressed or wrapped up in a blanket.
We then headed over to climb into or on top of the plastic blocks.
Most of us engaged in an alphabet puzzle with Miss Bekah. Several friends noticed the alphabet on the wall. We sang the ABC song as Miss Bekah pointed to each letter. She then went into the kitchen and we worked together to complete an alphabet puzzle by matching the picture on our letter with the picture on the board. Once complete, we went through the letters again to work on identifying the object on each piece.
Ben and Dax engaged with the cars and drove them down the ramps with Miss Tina while the rest of us were working on the alphabet puzzle.
Breakfast: Whole grain wheat bread toasted with butter and cinnamon/sugar mixture and fresh oranges.
Lunch: Whole grain wheat pasta with butter and red beans, fresh oranges/apple slices and peas.
Afternoon Snack: Whole milk yogurt and watermelon.
Wee Sprouts: Cucumbers.
Have a great evening!
