It's Thursday!

 It was a bittersweet day for the Pine Room Family as we had to say good-bye to our friend Aidan who moving to a new school. We took time to make him a special gift and put him in our hearts and sang our We wish you well song. 

We explored self portraits again today with playdough and dry erase markers.







We definitely love exploring with blocks and using our imagination to create fun new things.





Joey was showing me how he can roll a ball with the playdough.




Everett was proud to make his Grandma's face with the playdough.




Joey said, "Look, it's me and my Dad!"

We decided to bring out the trains today.


Climbing on the snail is so much fun! Aidan is gonna miss his favorite spot on our playscape.



Another class at our school made a home for critters. They worked so hard to find all the parts and put it together. They even made a sign asking friends to help keep it nice.






Weston was proud of a neat rock he found.


Ms. Jennifer helped our friends make a beautiful going away gift.


Ms. Kari helped us make poppers earlier this week and they are still a big hit! For a nice DIY toy at home you can make this using a pool noodle, a balloon, some tape and a pom pom.


A cool fine motor activity we had out today was stringing beads. We explored different shapes, colors, sizes and created fun patterns.


Things that Go (roll) are some of our favorite things to play with!

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...
