Welcome back!

 Hello Pine family! I hope you all had a great long holiday weekend. We are jumping right into week 3 with our words of the week STOP and GO. To help us practice we will use music, books and our invitations at centers. This week we invited our kiddos to build an obstacle course, go bowling and explore cars and ramps. Some academic skills naturally embedded in this play are colors, letters, and numbers. We are discussing fast and slow, how to wait and take turns, and help manage our feelings.

See if your kiddo can demonstrate these for you!

How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...
