Making Playdoh

Today some of the Pine friends headed to the kitchen to make some playdoh. Not only is it one of their favorite things to make in the kitchen, it's also one of their favorite choices in the classroom. 

While making playdoh the kids need work on a number of skills throughout the process. They followed so many different directions including the recipe for the playdoh itself, mixing, pouring, and lastly cleaning up. Learning all of these skills in somewhere as preferential as the kitchen allows the kids to see how taking care of their materials and spaces gives them opportunities to work there in the future. 















By the end of the day the kids were excited to celebrate the accomplishments of working together and cleaning up. What a great morning!

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 :)
