We have been having a fantastic time in Room 3 and are so excited to once again be studying trains. Trains and three-year-olds go together like macaroni and cheese. This year’s class was so excited to take our traditional Gold Line trip. We would like to give a special thanks to all the parents who participated and made this trip possible. It’s full steam ahead and we can’t wait to see where trains will take us this next!

We have been having a fantastic time celebrating the month of love here in Room 3. On Valentine’s Day and the Wednesday after, we made scrumptious heart shaped French Toast with Strawberry Jam, Yum! We would like to give a special thank you to Amelie’s Mom and Dad for coming in to cook with us on Wednesday. In addition to our cooking project, we also decorated Valentine treat bags to collect our Valentine’s Day loot. Thank you to everyone who gave so generously, the kids loved all their special Valentines. We still have two weeks left in our month long celebration of love and we look forward to seeing what comes next.

Room 3 had a lot of fun over the last couple of days before the long break. In celebration of the holidays to come, we had the chance to dress up in our jammies, make some Christmas colored Rice Krispie treats and played with powdered snow! It was an incredibly fun and exciting week and we wish everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing all of you in 2017 and until then, stay safe and stay warm! 

The children in Room 3 carved pumpkins and discovered the wondrous things inside those pumpkins. The seeds were cooked and we had an amazing time deciding whether our salty or sweet seeds were better. Try it at home and decide for yourself…salty or sweet?!?

Room 3 had an amazing time this week celebrating the season of orange pumpkins and falling leaves. We were all able to make and taste a delectable creation that we call, “Pumpkin Delight.” With the help of the children, a sweet, soft and moist treat was baked in honor of Autumn and its signature fruit, pumpkins.

This week, Room 3 had an amazing time going up to the main campus and playing on what we call the “Big Field.” The children get to do all sorts of things such as playing with balls, popping bubbles, chasing Mr. Timmy and playing a variety of games. The first game we started playing was Red light, Green light and it was a blast. The children made it more fun by striking poses when they had to stop. Please look forward to hearing about many more games in the future from both teachers and the children from Room 3.
