Although we couldn’t have our Halloween Parade outside, that didn’t stop us from having a lot of fun indoors.

First—a runway show down the “red carpet” to share our amazing costumes with our friends.

Second—A Halloween Parade inside Wee Friends! We marched to spooky music all around the house, led by our fearless leader Elliott aka “No Noggin”.

The excitement of putting on costumes, marching, twirling, swirling, and clapping made Wee Friends an energy-filled place this afternoon! We hope you have a safe and warm Halloweekend.

Dear Parents!

Sadly, we will not be parading this afternoon. After snack, we will invite Wee Friends to dress in their costumes and enjoy being together. We did not plan a parent party this year but will make sure our Friday is celebratory! See you at your regular pick up.

And HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Happy Thursday!

Nahla and Saskia started off their morning with pegs and number boards. We counted as we put each peg into the board. As we got higher and higher, we compared two boards and discussed less and more.

We bundled up and headed outside where friends took turns riding bikes. The sandbox was a hit as usual.

For breakfast, children had kix and pears. Lunch consisted of whole grain rice with chicken, banana/oranges, and corn. PM snack was cheddar cheese and bunny crackers.

Have a great night!

Tomorrow’s weather is calling for a cool and wet afternoon. If it isn’t conducive for a Parade, we will celebrate the holiday indoors.

Holiday anticipation is mounting. We spent our morning singing, playing the piano, hiding, stirring, creating decorations, squishing Play Do, building and climbing.

We LET IT GO formally (with the Frozen track) but we really let it go all morning, supporting the Wee Friend’s interest and desire to celebrate, build and create.

Have a great day. –Laurie

Wee Sprouts: Broccoli. Breakfast: Raisin Bran and grapes. Lunch: Brown rice with chicken, mixed fruit salad and corn. Snack: PB and celery.

MATH FAB K.6.2: Use objects or drawings to model problems.

As  our friends came to school today, we asked them “How would you fit this stick into this box?” We created a 3D exploration of the same question. We began our day cultivating a problem solving mentality. And it continued through the morning.

We then asked friends: What should we do with the newspaper broomsticks?” “Fly with them!”. We also stirred with them….and tried them on for size.

Have a great day. –Laurie

Wee Sprouts: PPC Green beans. Breakfast: PB on Rice cakes and Asian pears. Lunch: Scrambled eggs, apple slices and broccoli. Snack: Hummus and crackers.
