Stuck on the Ceiling

 This morning started off quite interesting. All week the boys have had the opportunity to play with the wind tunnel set up on our large carpet we typically use for our morning meetings. This is by far one of the more engaging activities because it provides a multitude of excitement and entertainment for everyone! Today though, we had a bit of a problem that everyone got involved in. One of the pieces of brightly colored cellophane was stuck on the ceiling! 

B was the first to notice. 

"Up!" He exclaimed as he got up onto his tippy toes and pointed towards the ceiling. We all turned and gazed upwards. There was the yellow piece of crinkly paper stuck to the ceiling tile. For the next few minutes every kid made it their mission to get the cellophane off the ceiling! 

There were a variety of different tactics we tried: jumping, getting on our tippy toes, putting more scarves and cellophane in the tunnel, and lastly just yelling at it. It wasn't until the plug was accidentally pulled out of the wall and the fan stopped that the paper gently fell to the floor. Accidental success! 



It was so fun to see everyone engaged in problem solving. There were lots of laughs and lots of yelling. Happy Thursday!

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 :)
