Happy "Monday"

 Wait a second, it's not Monday, it's Tuesday! I hope you all stayed warm and had a fun surprise day off! I am excited to report that our friends jumped right back in today with smiles and remembered the expectations and routines of the Pine room. We continue to practice our magic word PUT and our good question word WHERE throughout out play. We explored oats and animals in the sensory table, making conversation about what it feels like, looks like, smells like, etc. We found hidden animal puzzle pieces and PUT them in the right place. We continued our pet shop/veterinarian imaginary play where we discussed how to care for animals and what supplies animals need.  We also kept working on our tree branch project by letting our friends decorate with items of their choosing.

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...
