Tie Dye Tuesday

 This afternoon we settled out on the playscape to run around and play. We also had one other task to complete: making tye dye shirts! The kids were so excited to get to decorate their own shirt with the colors of their choosing. This tide in nicely with the color study we did a few weeks ago. 






As the kids used the squeeze bottles they noticed how the colors bled into one another and started creating secondary colors! 
"Look look, it's turning green! The yellow and blue mixed and made green!"
"Oh my is kind of orange with yellow and red."
"These are so cool!"
"My shirt looks beautiful!"

This was so fun! We are going to let the shirts sit overnight here at school, wash them out tomorrow, and let the kids wear them at school and then home on Thursday. We cannot wait to see how they turn out.

Digital World

This afternoon the kids settled into different activities after arrival. Some kids found themselves making a whole city with painter's tape roads, some dove into some books to get a good read in, and others tried making all kinds of creations out of legos. It isn't out of the ordinary for the kids to ask if we can play "office."  This pretend play cracks us all up because they are clearly imitating many of the same mannerisms they have seen either at home or at school. They pile stacks of papers next to them, lay out a bunch of markers, and start "typing" away on the out of commission computers we have. They talk about all the emails and notes they have to send. They make phone calls to each other and write copious amount of letters to send in the mail. Hilarious!  Today, I wanted to test out their letter identification as well as their typing skills they have been showing off these last few months. Plus they ask me just about every other day if they can typ...

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!
