Happy Thursday everyone!

Today the snow has finally arrived and greeted Mt. Pleasant. The children were very excited to see the snows arrival and went sledding as well as using the shovels to move the snow.

"I'm making a snow angel!" -Michael

In the Pine room, the children continue to play in the doctor area and treat other students as well as the animals at the veterinary section.

 Some students show us how to use the phone by texting and how to dial in numbers.

 To go along with all the snow we have received, the winter area was a big hit where Mrs. Potter read and talked about polar bears.

 The children decided to play house and played different roles as the mother, daughter, boyfriend, and girlfriends. They had jobs such as a secretary, doctors as well as an owner at a restaurant.






 In the Oak room, children continue to work on clay using the pottery tools. Ms. Goodman joined some students to play with the moon sand.

"When you spin this circle, that's when the clay will make make it's shape." -Sidney

 Maggie pretends to teach students how to use cameras by being a teacher, takes attendance reads a story as well as teaching about respectful listening.

"You are talking when I am trying to teach. You need to show respectful listening." -Maggie

In the Walnut room, students have been experimenting the sensory table with oobleck.

When creating the oobleck, it would rise as you put the water in.

Jeremiah plays with a plastic toy person and said "He's getting higher and higher!"

Have a wonderful and safe weekend!
