The Unstable Obstacle Course

First thing this morning, the Pine friends ventured into the collaboratory where E, C, & E wanted to build an obstacle course. 
"We need to make it really big! It has monsters!"

C's suggestion sparked a different way in which they could build an obstacle course. Instead of just lying the blocks next to one another on the ground, they started putting smaller blocks down first as stilts. 

"We have to build it up like this so the monsters won't get us."



E found different blocks and came across a long cylinder shaped block. 
"Here this one should work."



E took a step on the blue block and fell backwards landing on her butt. 
"Oh, that's too unstable!"


She began readjusting the smaller blocks and replaced the cylinder with a square. 
E sighed with relief and then began building the obstacle course with the two boys.

 It was a Ms Amy day!

Happy Wednesday

 How lucky are we that it was nice weather which allowed for much needed outside time!

Happy New Year!

 Hello Pine AM friends! It is so nice to see you guys again after 20 days! I hope everyone enjoyed the time off and maybe even a little fun in the snow. Today we only had 2 kiddos come to school which felt so strange but we made the best of it. We will be ready to fully jump back in the swing of things next week with new words IN and OUT, exploring our expanded Bakery and Cafe in our dramatic play area, reading stories about winter and hands on experiences with things that are cold.
