The Sour Fruit

Yesterday our class checked out some yellow fruit that was sitting on the table. 
"I think it's a lemon!"
"It is so big!"
"Lemons are yellow, that's definitely a lemon."

The kids were able to explore the fruit in whatever means they wished. Many chose to use the magnifying glass to look a little closer at the skin of the yellow fruit. 
"It's really yellow, and there's a little bit of brown too."
"It has like little holes and dots on it!"
"I have never seen a lemon like this."


Others chose to draw the lemon. They picked up yellow crayons and began drawing large yellow circles on their papers. 
"I am going to make it big like this one!"
"It's so yellow, it looks like the sun!"




Although the kids got to smell, touch, and look at the lemons, they weren't satisfied. 
"Will we get to eat it?" 
"I think it will be sour!"
"It might be kind of sweet?"
"We could make lemonade!"

Today, the kids got to taste the lemons. Watch the video to see how it went 😊

Welcome back

 Happy Tuesday! I hope you enjoyed your extra long weekend together but glad to see you all today. We changed out our word of the week, ask your kiddo if they remember what it is (PUT). At centers we continued exploring small world and our bakery. We opened the sensory table again and some faux snow and polar animals which was a big hit! We also changed out our gross motor center, changing out our obstacle course (crawl through tunnel, jump 10 times on the trampoline, and (steam)roll or summersault on the mat) for some thing new. Ask your kiddo if they tried to scoop the snowball, carry it across the balance beam and PUT it on the snowman.

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 :)

(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!
