Monday October 15, 2012

Happy Monday everyone!
We had a very busy Monday with new things to do throughout the school.
 In our am group we discussed the new instruments that are located in the hallway. One of the new instruments was the Ghana Xylophone. We discussed how to take care of it and how to properly use it. The children seemed to really enjoy listening to the sounds it made.
 
In the Maple/Construction room children were busy building and constructing things. Some children were interested in building sheds and towers. The recycle center was also busy. Children were using the tape to tape different objects together.
 
In the Oak/Art room children were able to help make the play dough for the classroom. Some children enjoyed using the watercolors to paint beads. While many others worked on making collages.
 
In the Pine/Pretend room the writing center was very busy. The children enjoyed making different things and putting them in the mailbox to send to friends or family members. Also the items that the children purchased at the farmers market were available in our own farmers market in the Pine classroom.
 
Lots of new things were added to the Walnut/Discovery room. Dirt and bugs were available where children could dig through dirt and find different types of bugs and worms. The shaving cream was available again this time with mirrors so the children could see themselves using the shaving cream. The children also enjoyed building towers for the marbles to go through.
 
The children were digging in the sandbox today and found a real worm!
