Taking Turns

Welcome back to a new week of school! This morning we spent our time with the Dogwood class playing up by the swings. It took some time for all of the boys to find something of interest to settle in, but once they found the swing it was good times all around. M & H were sitting on the swing when N walked up. He looked and saw that there weren't any spots open for him to sit. N walked around to the back of the swing and started to push the boys instead of trying to squeeze on. The boys all giggled as N pushed the swing back and forth.  



M & H noticed immediately when N stopped pushing.
"Hey, it stopped!" 
N looked at the two of them and said "my turn." 
The boys scooted over to make some room for their friend. 


"Who is going to push?"
Uh oh, now that all three boys were sitting on the swing there was nobody to push! The swing hung motionless as the three boys looked around. After about a minute, H popped up. 
"Oh! I'll push!"



From then on, the boys took turns pushing each other on the swing. It was a calming scene as the all three boys took tuns, enjoyed the nice breezy weather, and took everything in. 

It's so good to see these little moments happen throughout the day. So proud of those boys!

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...

Happy March

 Pine Family, welcome to March! It was an eventful day for us with Ms. Julie coming to visit for center time, a tornado drill, a birthday, and met a new friend Oliver!
