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 😊

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 :)

Monday 2/12

 Happy Monday! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Not sure who is a football fan, but YAY CHIEFS!!!!! Let's celebrate this week by wearing Red for the Chiefs big Super Bowl win as well as red (or pink) for Valentine's Day!  Wednesday we are hosting a family pop in to help celebrate Valentine's day in our own Ambrose way. We will be talking all things love and friendship this week and would love to make a friendship mix as a special snack. (Here is the link if you want to donate https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KZGO1UibmZqK9XuNgXpwnY12fq-ZFwgQF6oC37FjaqE/edit?usp=sharing )  We will not be doing store bought Valentine card exchange, but will allow friends to make their own special cards/artwork to give to friends this week! 

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!
