Heat Wave!

Mother Nature was kind to us today so children had the option to play outside twice today; once during regular scheduled time and then again during p.m. centers! New toys such as carts and scooters were offered on the playground as a result. "It's so warm!" Mark said as he pushed one leg behind the scooter. Many children even found ways to use the last signs of winter to make creative sand/dirt/snow-pies! Bon appetite!
While inside, children took note of the new materials available in the sensory tables of the Walnut Room. Orbie Water Marbles were added and many enjoyed the sensation of squeezing them between their fingers along with toy fish and beakers. "Look how big this one is!" Chloe H. exclaimed as she noticed the various sizes.

Science and Technology - Demonstrates knowledge of the physical properties of objects and materials. 
Mathematics - Compares and measures.
