Welcome Back! Our Room 1 friends had a great first week back to school after our nice long Christmas break! The rain gave us a chance to explore wet soil, discover some interesting earthworms, pill bugs and insects all around our outdoor classroom! Consider our interests officially sparked!
Inside, we kept the learning going with games like Four Corners and The Freeze Dance! Think of all the areas of development games give children the opportunity to grow in: social, emotional, physical, and cognitive! They learn how to cooperate with a large group, develop the emotional capacity to be “out,” learn to coordinate big body movements to the rhythm of music, spacial reasoning, memory and so much more! Games are a fantastic way to foster desirable character traits such as perseverance, fairness, and our favorite–FUN!
We even had a dance party in the dark…
