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!

They worked purposefully and explained the different parts as they worked.  "We need to cut out a circle for it to be the telescope." 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...
