All Aboard!

 Happy Monday! I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend! What a way to start off our week this week. The boys really impressed the whole Pine teaching time with their desire to play with the train set! Towards the beginning of the school  year the boys had the opportunity to create a track and push the small trains around and around. As you can imagine, that activity did not go as planned and the boys weren't too interested in creating something, but rather breaking it apart. 

This morning, however, we revisited the trains and with HUGE success, each boy participated in his own way! 






Not only did the boys play appropriately and functionally with the toys, they were also using so many of our core words like up, down, go, stop, in and out. They stuck with the activity for a majority of our morning before heading outside. These boys continue to grow week by week and it is so exciting to see. Proud of them!!

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...
