Work Together Wednesday

 It's official, spring has sprung in the Pine room! Today the boys were engaging in so many different springtime activities. For the last few weeks our classes have been watching the transformation of caterpillars turning into butterflies! Today was the first day our little morning guys noticed the creatures. It was too cute. There was so much language and just overall excitement over the winged bugs. You can watch in the video below as they cautiously approach, but then erupt in giggles once they began to flap their wings. They examined them very closely and noticed that several of them were climbing up the netted walls. 

"Up!" B would exclaim as the bugs moved slowly up the side of the net. 

"Butterfly!" W cheerfully exclaimed as they started to flap their wings. 

"Orange!" T commented when he watched as the biggest of the butterflies slowly opened his wings to show it's gorgeous colors and patterns. 

We didn't forget about Work Together Wednesday! Once we got outside, the boys all participated in expanding our garden. They all took turns digging in the dirt and planting some herbs for the school. Such a great way to contribute to our larger community! The boys worked side by side and with teachers to create a lovely edible landscape. 

Looking forward to Artsy Thursday tomorrow!

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 :)
