Apples

We are finishing up a two week unit on apples.  We have learned about the life cycle of an apple, parts of an apple, and so much more!  One of our favorite days during this study was when we all brought in our favorite apples.  We were able to try many different kinds of apples and then graphed which apple was our favorite.  Here are some pictures from this fun learning activity!

Color Weeks

Today is the last day of our two week long study into learning about and having fun with colors!  Each day the kids had a great time dressing up for that days color!  We got to sing songs, dance, write about and learn a ton about colors.  Ask your child which color day was their favorite!  Thank you for your involvement in encouraging your child to dress for the occasion!!

Grandparent's Day!!

We had such a wonderful time celebrating Grandparent's Day this morning.  We put on a performance by singing our Grandparent's poem- "You Are Special" to all of our guests!  After we finished our performance we got to show our grandparents what we do during center time.  We had the best time reading together, playing together and visiting together!  We love our grandparents!!

Ant Hunt!

We had the best time during science today!  Since we have been learning about ants we decided to go on an ant hunt.  We all learned how to use magnifying glasses!  Before we went outside we went over some rules to make sure we were safe on our ant hunt (this included no touching the ants).  We also made some predictions about where we would find ants.  Most of our predictions were correct!  We found them in the grass, by the trees and even near food!  Being a scientist is pretty awesome!!
