There’s a lot to sort in an early childhood classroom. Not only did we sort about nine different kinds of glass beads and math “manipulatives”, we sorted out feelings, shared spaces, directions to new games, letter sequences to make words, song lyrics, felt storyboard pieces, baby dolls, tears, bumps and bruises and color schemes.

We seem always to be sorting things out. Not only a great math skill, but a great life skill.

Enjoy your weekend. – Laurie

Happy Wednesday!

**Just to inform parents, we did have a child leave the environment today after vomiting. We’ve heard it’s also going around Wee Friends as well! Stay healthy!

Books were read sporadically throughout the day. Children are doing an increasingly good job at reading stories to themselves. They point at the pictures throughout the story. When kids are at this developmental age, it’s often the pictures that we look at to tell us the story!

Friends shouted, “1, 2, 3!” as they jumped off the big blocks! A few of us landed on our feet while others weren’t as adventurous .

We were very into hats this afternoon.

For breakfast, children had raisin and cinnamon bagels with butter and banana. Lunch consisted of soy butter tortillas, oranges, and cucumbers. PM snack was oranges and graham crackers.

Have a terrific night!

Today at Wee Friends we:

read books with friends,

created a  “Lego Sunflower”,

hung around,

                   

and listened to instructions,

so that we could work on a special, secret project! (shhhh)

We can’t wait to share our work with you!

Happy Wednesday.

Happy Monday!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

We enjoy standing up in the habitrail and watching mommies and daddies drop off in the morning. Friends always wave to children when they get out of the car.

Children read many books this morning. Every child has their favorite book or type of story that they love listening to!

Pretend play was in full force this morning as Lucy worked with laying a blanket out for her baby. Anna used the soft fruit to cook with while other friends used pancakes and corn.

Maya and Tate waved goodbye to Saskia as she left for the day. We’re very much into the waving phase .

For breakfast, children had toast with cinnamon and oranges. Lunch consisted of whole grain pasta, string cheese, corn, and apples. PM snack was thin rice cakes with cream cheese.

Have a lovely night!

Happy Monday!

Hope your week is off to a festive start. –Laurie

Happy Friday!

It was a literacy filled morning! Our verbal children are working on using their words when they want or need something. While our friends are learning words from their family and surroundings, they also learn a great deal from each other.

It was Friday. After a long holiday weekend, our friends were just a little sleepy before lunch .

For breakfast, children had English muffins with cream cheese and oranges. Lunch consisted of brown rice with beef, mixed vegetables, and banana. PM snack was cheddar cheese and banana.

Have a terrific weekend!
