Leaves Part 2!

 Although yesterday was not the day we anticipated, the boys were really on their game today! Our meeting with Ms. Julie was filled with lots of movement, music, and connection with one another. The boys really showed their abilities to follow along and participate- way to go!

We spent most of the morning out in garden area. Since the boys have been so interested in watching the leaves fall and have even tried to recreate the experience in our room we were able to capitalize on all of the dried leaves that were on the ground! 

B picked up a rake and got right to work. He made great effort in trying to pile them up to then gather them in his arms and toss them in the air! L immediately noticed and headed over to help B out. 







The two boys laughed and watched the leaves fall around them. They rolled around, picked up them, and attempted to toss them into the air by themselves. 

It's great that we are able to make so many different connections inside and outside of the classroom. The boys have really shown growth in their play schemes and interests over the last few weeks as they are exposed to different materials, spaces, and friends. 
Happy Fall!

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...
