Pod B Explores with Playdough

 This week in Pod B we started making play-dough on Tuesday.  Throughout the rest of the week children have been exploring with the play-dough, seeing what happens when they add water and starch to the play-dough.  We have also been talking about sharing and friendship in Pod B.  Today at the texture table with the play-dough some children were experimenting with what happens to the play-dough when they push down with their hands or roll it between their hands.  Some children played around with the stencils and other tools that were available to them.  There were three children playing with the play-dough and a fourth came and joined them.  The child asked if she could have some play-dough and all three of the children that had play-dough gave her some.  They repeated this process each time a new friend came and joined them and asked for some play-dough.

Experimenting with stencils.
