Musical Chairs

 Another day with Ms. Julie means another day to try a self regulation game! This morning the boys gave their go at musical chairs. As you can imagine, the first round was a lot of herding and redirecting to sit in a chair when the music stopped. It was quite exhausting for everyone 😅 BUT! By the second and third time we played the boys were understanding that when the music turned off it was time to find a chair. It was too funny! A lot of the game the boys did need prompting to get to their chairs, but then we tested it out... would they make their way to the chairs if a teacher didn't help? 

Well, 5 out of the 6 boys made it to the chairs! It was a success in our book 😊






Such an easy game to play at home too, especially getting the whole family involved. 

Have a great weekend!

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 :)
