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!

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 :)

Welcome back

 Happy Tuesday! I hope you enjoyed your extra long weekend together but glad to see you all today. We changed out our word of the week, ask your kiddo if they remember what it is (PUT). At centers we continued exploring small world and our bakery. We opened the sensory table again and some faux snow and polar animals which was a big hit! We also changed out our gross motor center, changing out our obstacle course (crawl through tunnel, jump 10 times on the trampoline, and (steam)roll or summersault on the mat) for some thing new. Ask your kiddo if they tried to scoop the snowball, carry it across the balance beam and PUT it on the snowman.

All the fun

Today was not a typical day in the Pine room. We pulled out some new items to explore, had an impromptu dance party, capered, had a practice fire drill (during snack of all times) and ended out in the sunshine by the snail.  To our sick friends, we wish you well and hope to see you Monday! Have a great weekend :)
