We Went Walking

 On this morning's walk the boys talked about SO many things they saw as we made our way around the neighborhood. This time of the year is great because we get to see so many beautiful colors, and to today's surprise, a bunch of people right outside our door doing some work on the road. Needless to say, the boys were thrilled with our long walk around the block. 


"Look look!" W yelled as he ran his hands across the bush. The other boys gathered around and started feeling it too. 
"Ouch!" B yelled as he he did not like the feeling of it. 


As we turned to continued on our walk J's eyes got huge as he exclaimed,"A flower!" 
W shared in his excitement, "A flower, look! Hey a flower!"

"Oh no! A big truck!"
I wonder where it was going? We continued on. 


It wasn't before long that W and T were staring down at the sidewalk checking on the ants that were below our feet. 





Our walk was filled with lots of good language and overall a lot of excitement about what was going on. We were finally coming up on the main event... new pavement and the many large trucks making their way down the street. 




The boys watched in awe as the steam roller came by and smoothed out the newly made asphalt. We could feel the heat from it as well as here the sizzling water cool down as we walked past and waved goodbye. 

Such an exciting morning!

"We should make it yellow too." "It also needs a telescope (periscope)." Now that the drawing phase was complete, some friends wandered over to then build a submarine out of the blocks. 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...
