Forest Exploration

As we headed into the dense forest, E was excited to start exploring in between the trees and along the overgrown paths. He set out behind some of his friends and began his journey. 


E worked hard climbing over all of the obstacles. He watched as his friends navigated their way through and imitated their movements. 




"Come this way!"



"I have a stick."


E dug in the dirt for some time with a friend from Magnolia. They used sticks to dig into the wet dirt. They said they were looking for bugs. Unsuccessful, E moved back into the dense trees. 


"A tree!"


"I climb up."


"I'm a monkey!"

E tried climbing the first tree,but found it difficult. He looked to his right and noticed a short stump under a branch. E carefully stepped up and chose an easier tree to climb. 






"Monkey! Ooo aahh!!"


E took the time to find out which parts of the forest he could manage. When he faced a difficult obstacle, he simply looked for other ways to achieve his goal. He never gave up on his quest to climb the tree. E persevered and used flexible thinking to find an easier way to be successful!

Week 2 Day 2

 Pine Family is rocking and rolling in week 2! We are having less feelings of sad, mad, and scared upon entering class and more happy and fun throughout the day!  Friendly reminders: Water bottles should only come to school filled with water (it's the best for our bodies and in case another student would accidently take a sip it won't cause harm), sunscreen should be applied before drop off (there is not a lot of shade and not a lot of time for us to get the kiddos all lathered up), and bug spray should be applied before drop off (this is mostly needed when we start going to the forest on Tuesdays, starting on Sept 12th). Thanks :)

so close now....

Can you believe that we only have one more day together this school year? Today we celebrated the second to last day with a summer bday celebration. We also revealed our tie dyed shirts! (we only did a light rinse, beware that colors will run when you wash!!) TOMORROW: WATER DAY! You need to wear your suit, water friendly shoes, sunscreen already applied, water bottle, towel and dry clothes to change into!
