Welcome back from a long weekend

Hi pine families, I hope you enjoyed your long weekend together! We are back in full swing in week #10. We will be switching up our word of the week to TURN. This is a great word to use when we want something; take the opportunity to practice at home asking for “my turn”.

Turn can also be good for when reading bedtime stories, “turn the page”, and let your kiddo help. We are still exploring birds (where do birds live?), bugs ( how do bugs move?), babies ( how can a doctor take care of the baby?), music (how can each instrument make sounds?) and the color purple (what can you see around you that is purple?).

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...
