Caterpillars!

 Welcome back! We started this week off with a bang. Over break I ordered some caterpillars and a butterfly garden since a lot of what we have focused on this year has been anything pertaining to outside. The kids were SO excited to see the fuzzy little worms crawling around in the cup. 

"Caterpillars!"
"They will be butterflies?"

"They are getting big and look at all the food!"

"They are going to be butterflies really soon. Like maybe in a little bit."

"Yeah they have to be in cocoons to be butterflies!"

The conversation revolved mostly about the life cycle which was perfect! Everyone crowded around the drawing table and began making some predictions on what they eat, when they will become butterflies, and how they grow so fast. 

If you are interested in trying at home, you can go here.

I am so excited to see what goes on from here throughout the coming days and weeks.

Day 2 Pine Room Fun!

For our invitations we have our small world were we can tell stories about what our families like to do outside. In our dramatic play we are showing how we can care for others, including our baby dolls. Outside we are checking out how fun our giant snail and mud kitchen are.

Creek Time

  Happy Tuesday! We spent our entire afternoon out at Larson Park! It was definitely a hot one so when the kids heard we were going to get to play in the creek, they screamed in excitement. Not everyone wanted to stomp around in the shallow water and that was a-okay. Such a fun afternoon splashing around, exploring, and doing a great job sticking together as a class!

Our week ends

 Happy Thursday Pine Family! Today we wrapped up with our magic words GET and WHAT and our centers. Next week will be brand new, maybe you can try to guess what we might be learning! Since it was very muddy on the hillside we did gross motor time inside and had fun exploring together in the gym. While we played, we also worked on our beautiful class project for the auction, hope you will all come bid on it! Can your kiddo remember how many friends we wished well today? Can they remember their names? We ended our day with story time and our "What filled your bucket today?" Have a great weekend!
