Happy Monday!

 It is evident that Spring is in full effect; hopefully these April showers bring May flowers! During our look at the flow of our day/schedule we discussed why we were having indoor gross motor time. I asked why they thought they couldn't go outside and our friends figured out it is because of the rain/mud. Our day started off with a new/different sign-in: ask what shape they colored in! Our magic words continue to be LISTEN and HEAR and our good question word is WHAT? For centers we had art at the table where we painted (but while we waited our turn, we played playdough). At the carpet we had the cars out again and used our imagination and random items to create fun ways to play (challenge your kiddo to tell you what kinds of things they did with their cars). Our third center was the sensory table (challenge your kiddo to talk about what is in it). Our friend Ms. Kari joined us for group time at the carpet where she showed her speech movie and read a book (see if your kiddo can name the animal). To end our day, I read a Spring story where we practiced some rhyming words (challenge your kiddo to say some rhymes).

S, who seemed to display a high level of confidence, took a hold of the branch as R handed it to her. She took a deep breath and jumped off the log.  S swung with grace over the ground.  The others watched in awe and quickly lined up to take turns.  Each friend took a different approach and not always quite sure on how to get the same kind of lift and swing S did. W seemed unsure on the whole activity, but was willing to try. He couldn't quite get the desired swinging motion and lost interest after his first try.  L saw how the others were swinging and although a little scared, decided to try several times in a row be...

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!
