What I Made in the Kitchen

I'll be honest, some days I am very bored and can't always think of something to do. Like all of you, I am staying home to stay healthy and I don't always want to. I wish I could go for a hike, go to library, or even just go to a favorite store to go shopping. It just isn't an option right now. My mom was a huge influence for today's video. She always reminded me that it wasn't a bad thing to be bored and often told me to "figure it out" when I complained. She always told me there were plenty of things to do, I just had to go looking for them. In this video, I did exactly that!

I am so thankful for the times I was bored growing up and still even as an adult. It forces me to slow down and really think about what I can do even when I think there isn't anything to do. I am thinking about you all and hope you too are staying safe and well, even if you are a little bored 😊

Submarine Update

Yesterday the Pine friends continued their exploration on how to create a submarine out of a box. They first started drawing sketches of how it should look. "It needs to have windows!" "We should make it yellow too." "It also needs a telescope (periscope)." Now that the drawing phase was complete, some friends wandered over to then build a submarine out of the blocks. They worked purposefully and explained the different parts as they worked. "We need to cut out a circle for it to be the telescope." B, V, & E continued to work with one another and make compromises throughout their building in order to make the best version of a submarine as they could. The three finished building their submarine, but noticed something was missing. "It needs a propeller so it can move!" How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...

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 :)
