In pictures

I deeply apologize for not updating much in the last month and a half. It has been busy but so fantastic.
I will make blog post a month too late about some exciting news before the end of May, but until then I would like to just do a big photo dump of things that had happened in the classroom!

Enjoy

Puffy Paint - 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup flour, 1/2 cup salt

We spent April and May exploring community helpers. Who are community helpers, real and make believe, and how we can be community helpers. 

We  celebrated by having a Superhero day!

Writing onamonapias in their journals

We also enjoyed learning about spring animals and the changes that come with the new season.

Upcycled Mother's Day crafts

We had so much fun with our Nature Center. There we could find feathers, seeds, plants, coral, rocks, petrified wood and pussy willows. We could observe the differences between insects (butterflies) and arachnids (tarantulas), as well as the difference between crawling and flying.
