Week 7 is here!

 Hello Pine Family and welcome to Week 7 of preschool! This week we will continue to focus on our words MY TURN and YOUR TURN. Our invitations for centers similar to last week as we build on our skills while keeping our interests in mind. In the sensory table we were sorting colors and discussing textures. This week we added a treasure hunt component revisiting things that GO and STOP. We also continued with car play but added a fine motor element where students could cut tape and stick to the table creating roads for their cars to drive on, discussing fast and slow as opposites.  Our third activity was learning through art by focusing on 1 color and 1 shape; ask your kiddo if they can tell you what shape and/or color we did! (Circle/Red) 

We started a new routine today: daily writing! If friends are ready to work on letters they will be challenged to trace and write the letters in their name. Some friends will work on more basic strokes, with a focus this week of Circles.

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.

Because S spends the beginning of her day in another classroom, she was already familiar with a coveted branch that hung low enough for the kids to try and swing on.  "There's a tree swing at the forest, we should all do it!" 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!
