It Finally Feels like Spring!

Today felt like it was the first day of spring and it seems like the snow is almost all gone!  It was the first time we didn't need to wear all of our snow gear, which felt amazing!  We all took advantage of this weather and played outside for our outside time and we also closed two rooms down for PM centers so that the children could choose to go back outside if they wanted to or still hang out inside in the walnut or pine room.

If the children weren't outside playing, they were experimenting in the pine room because a post office and a campground were added to the room, which were the busiest places for the day.  The post office allows children to make their own mail and stick it into a mailbox for their peers and families.  The campground has sleeping bags, a campfire and chairs for the children to pretend that they are in the woods and relaxing.

Teaching Strategies: The Arts #36 "Explores drama through actions and language"

Social-Emotional #3 "Participates cooperatively and constructively in group situations"

Hopefully this weather stays and enjoy your short week this week!
