The Bridge

 Today in the collaboratory, the boys enjoyed part of their time playing on an obstacle course the Dogwood class created. A was cracking me up! He would do the whole course, but for some reason was not on board with crossing over the curved piece we deemed the bridge. If you notice in the video below, he approaches it and then decides on a different route. It was hilarious! For whatever reason, A did not feel comfortable walking over it, even with assistance. It was quite curious, but he always had a plan in place. He continued to zig and zag across the course and paying close attention to which blocks he was going to attempt to walk across. It is always enjoyable to sit and observe play, especially by our friends with emerging language. Although they cannot always vocalize what they are doing and thinking, they still have particular plans in place as they play.

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.

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 :)

so close now....

Can you believe that we only have one more day together this school year? Today we celebrated the second to last day with a summer bday celebration. We also revealed our tie dyed shirts! (we only did a light rinse, beware that colors will run when you wash!!) TOMORROW: WATER DAY! You need to wear your suit, water friendly shoes, sunscreen already applied, water bottle, towel and dry clothes to change into!
