Panda Observations

The Pine kids are becoming more interested in some of the animals we have been watching on live feed cameras (panda live feed). Today we looked a little closer at a panda by observing him eat bamboo and sleep on some rocks. Some of the kids decided to build their own home for a panda and talk about what pandas can do. We also started our Magic Words this week with Ms. Kari. We will start focusing on two core words a week to incorporate into our studies and play. This week's words are stop and go!



"They stretch like this."



"It's a square!"


"It's a cave for the panda"

"You can make circles like this for the panda!"









"I need to get all of this wood out!"

B, V, & E continued to work with one another and make compromises throughout their building in order to make the best version of a submarine as they could.  The three finished building their submarine, but noticed something was missing.  "It needs a propeller so it can move!" How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...

Happy March

 Pine Family, welcome to March! It was an eventful day for us with Ms. Julie coming to visit for center time, a tornado drill, a birthday, and met a new friend Oliver! Of course we practiced our new words put and where. We also made sure to enjoy the gorgeous weather today by pulling on some boots and stomping in the mud. To end our wonderful Tuesday we wished Logan a very happy 5th birthday!
