Welcome week 5!

Hello Pine Family and welcome back; I hope you all had a great weekend! Lots of friends were out today which left us with such a small school family. We made sure to wish them well!

This week is sure to be lots of fun with some new explorations. We are still practicing our magic words GO and STOP and our good question words WHO and WHERE. To support learning our magic words we are using some new activities and music. Our invitations for center time consisted of the wind tunnel, magnetic ball wall, and kinetic sand. At the wind tunnel kiddos explored putting different materials in the tube and watched the air from the fan make the material GO up and out of the tube. Friends discovered that they could try to catch the items as the fell down to the ground. Some friends even noticed that some went really high and others didn't even GO up the tube at all. On the ball wall kiddos could construct magnetic tubes on the white board and watch the balls GO down the tubes. Friends noticed that the balls did not just STOP when they came out, but instead would roll all over the room! In the kinetic sand, we had a fun sensory experience squishing and forming silly things.

Rainbow Snow!

  The Pine kids wrapped up their week with playing in the snow! Unfortunately, it is just a wee bit too cold to be playing outside. I do appreciate all of the kids wearing snow boots, coats, hats, and gloves though! It's helpful for the days in which we do decide to take a quick walk around the block 😊 Instead of playing in the snow outside, we brought it inside! Snow is fun to play in, but we couldn't really build a snowman, throw it around, or make snowballs.. what could we do?! Then it dawned on us, let's paint it! We got out some water colors, eye droppers, and a big pile of snow and the kids went to town. They used their knowledge of mixing colors to create new ones as they dropped them onto the white snow.  "It's so cold!" "Look, look, I am making it pink!" "It's blue snow!" They giggled and laughed as the slow melting snow absorbed the bright vibrant colors. It hardly looked like snow anymore! This was a great way to incorporate...
