Outdoor play is the best! We have been climbing on the big structure, going down the slides, runing and digging in the sand!
Sorting bears, mixing colors
We have been learning how to sort bears; placing the right color bears into the right color cup. We have been practicing with mixing colors; we have mixed yellow and red to make orange, yellow and blue to make green. We have also used green and blue to create the earth.
Science and Exploration
In Room 5, we have been exploring caterpillars growing, planting beans and testing out the reaction of vinegar and baking soda!
Chapel – April 2021
This April’s chapel focused on the “Good News” of Christ resurrections. While Easter is a few weeks behind us, we aspire to celebrate Jesus’ love, power, and promise everyday.
We also learned the words and Mr. Tim’s hand motions to Lord I Lift Your Name On High. Below you will find a YouTube link to a fun version of the song and a preschool favorite.
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 (NIV)
We revisited the details of the Easter Story by reading from our Rhyme Bible. It was a great way to recall everything that happened on that incredible day. He is risen!
Butterfly Observation in Room 1A
A few weeks ago, Room 1 had a few tiny visitors stay for about two weeks. During the first week, we observed these tiny visitors and watched them grow! Boy, do caterpillars grow fast! From one day to another, we saw the caterpillars transform into chrysalis. After a few days passed, we noticed the chrysalis wiggling and giggling, as butterflies began to emerge from the chrysalis! Once the butterflies were ready, we released them into the wild. Such a beautiful experience and a wonderful opportunity to learn about the butterfly life cycle.
Mountains and Valleys
The Room 3 friends love to play in the sandbox and in the wood chips. Each has their own draw and inspires different kinds of creative play.
One of the things that the Room 3 teachers like to do is to refer to a persons bottom as a biscuit. So when the friends are asked to sit down, they are asked to sit on their biscuit. They have taken this word and applied it to their play.
Every day we find new ways to build and create and use our imagination!
He Has Risen Room 1B
During the past few weeks revolving around Easter, the children have been learning about how Jesus died on the cross and then resurrected. How he came to wipe away our sims. And how the Holy spirit was sent to help us make good choices and guide us in showing us the way God would want us to go.
We also had our Easter egg hunt. Thank you to are our wonderful parents who made our Easter parties a success.
Rocket Experiment in Room 1A
Hello wonderful Room 1A families! We wanted to share a snippet of our rocket experiment with you. 🚀 We used a simplified version of the Scientific Method for our experiment. The kiddos were able to make predictions from their observations. They created a hypothesis and we eventually put those predictions to the test. After that, they recorded their results and we were able to discuss what went right or wrong with our experiment. Our students are all so intuitive and observant. They love asking questions and love having their questions answered. We hope you enjoy this post as much as we did. We’ve attached a few videos to help showcase how excellent our little scientists are.
Our Room 1B March Madness
We had so much fun celebrating St Patrick’s Day in class. From yummy green snacks, to video story time, to an office field trip to make our hats with Ms. Joy. This week we also learned about blue prints and designed a leprechaun trap. We then built it and waited patiently to see the results of our hard work. Check it out.
Week of the Young Child
This week has been a blast! Every day has had a different theme and it has been so much fun dressing up and seeing what the friends were going to wear.
All in all it was a pretty busy week and we can’t wait to see what next week will bring!
