Hello Families and Friends! Like everyday, today was a great day! Pod A enjoyed this great day sunny day with multiple activities to keep us busy and smiling! This Thursday we had pajama day! We also had a picnic in the Zen Garden and enjoyed some fun inside! Outside, we had parachutes, balls and different varieties of other activities going on! Inside, we enjoyed the new addition to the pretend center; the tent. And also, one of our butterflies came out of its chrysalis today! The children were very excited about that!!

Pajama day did the opposite of what its normal job, the students were actually pretty busy today! The picnic in the Zen Garden was FANTASTIC!! The children enjoyed the sun, ate lunch and began their post lunch activities! We brought out TWO parachutes today! The parachutes were so much fun! But that was just the beginning! Ms. Keck played kickball with a group of children! Also, there was another group of children playing duck duck goose! This kept everyone busy and happy!

During center time, there was a roar of excitement in the walnut room. A group of students crowed Ms. Potter because she was holding the first butterfly to come out of its chrysalis!

This week had been a exciting week and I am definitely looking forward to next week with the children! Until next time,

Ms. Armstrong : )
