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!

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...

Happy New Year!

 Hello Pine AM friends! It is so nice to see you guys again after 20 days! I hope everyone enjoyed the time off and maybe even a little fun in the snow. Today we only had 2 kiddos come to school which felt so strange but we made the best of it. We will be ready to fully jump back in the swing of things next week with new words IN and OUT, exploring our expanded Bakery and Cafe in our dramatic play area, reading stories about winter and hands on experiences with things that are cold.
