Pod A Tuesday, February 21, 2012

Hello everyone!
Today was a busy and great day! This week the children were introduced to a new workout video called Shawn T's Fit Kid's Club. This will be an option in the mornings during Centers for them to do as they wish. There has also been the introduction of  pipes for them to build with in the Discovery center. They are able to shape and create them how they want and eventually water will be added so they can explore with it. Today they did a lot of problem solving with the placement of pipes and how to connect them together so they would stay up.

This afternoon Mrs. McGee continued her nutrition unit. She talked about fruits by reading a story, doing a movement activity and also taste testing a couple of different fruits. Every Tuesday quite a few children talk about Mrs. McGee and how they cannot wait for her to come visit. This week at the texture table we are using shaving cream and powder paint to explore with. Hoping for a great rest of the week!
