Pod A: Looking For Birds

Today we changed the schedule around for the afternoon. We now do lunch, small group, rest, center, large group, outside time and then pick up to go home. Even though the schedule changed the students did very well on the new change and it worked with them. I know it was hard to go outside to pick up your kids at the end of the day, but please be patient with us as we are all working on this together to make it the best environment for the children.

Something recently we added to the discovery center is birds, binoculars, and in the dry sensory table we added bird seed. The children were very interested in the new additions of the birds and materials to go with them. Today the children were picking up the binoculars and looking outside to see if there were any birds. The children did see some birds but they were far away and not close enough for them to get a good look at. The children were not finding any birds so Ms. Keck starting asking if they hold the binoculars different ways if they can see a difference in size. The children did notice that if they held the binoculars differently to look threw them the sizes of  what they were looking at were different.
