Swinging on the Swing

Welcome back to a brand new week! Looking ahead at the weather, we noticed that we have some cooler temperatures and possibly snow?! It was obvious we had to take advantage of this sunny day. After morning meeting we headed outside to spend the rest of our day playing near the cave, digging in the rocks, and getting into all sorts of good trouble.

A surveyed the space for a little bit. He took his time walking around and checking out the different things his friends were doing. Then his eyes grew big and a smile spread across his face. He noticed the red bucket swing gently swinging back and forth from the wind, and it was empty! A quickly made his way over and plopped down. T watched A and decided he was going to be a good friend and give him a few pushes on the swing. Within a few seconds both boys were smiling, giggling, and enjoying the gentle sway of the swing. Once A was finished, T took his turn. It was clear A was more interested in the swinging rather than the pushing. Who can blame him!? A wonderful morning spent outside.

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...
