In science class, Mr. John had us put an organge and a peeled orange into a tank of water. We noticed that the orange floated and the peeled orange sank! Mr. John told us that the reason the orange floated is because of the air trapped inside. Thank you for such a fun science class!

Take A Peek Into Our Week/ Ms. Kate/ January 29,2020

Oh what a fun week we had this week! Our weekly them was the 5 senses!!They had a blast doing different activities such as taste testing different spicy, sweet, bitter, sour, salty, and sweet foods. We also used all of our five senses when we made popcorn!! Some of our other activities that we had fun with was using our sense smell by guessing what food was under a cup,using our sense of touch to match different types of fabrics, and a fun take away game for our sense of sight. Ms. Amanda created fun crafts that went along with each of the senses.

We had fun guessing what each smell was under each cup! 
While blindfolded, I took one item away from the group and they had to guess which one I took away! 
Each box was filled with different objects. They had to use their sense of touch to figure out what was inside! 
Our friends created 5 senses puppets. 
For sense of sight they made binoculars!

Take A Peek Into Our Week/Ms. Kate/January 24,2020

Happy Friday everyone!!

I can’t believe that January is almost over. Time is just flying by!! This week all of our lessons were about celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We read some incredible books that really explained who he was on their level. They learned about segregation, they listened to his I Have A Dream speech, learned who Rosa Parks was, and learned about freedom marches and sit-ins. Ms.Amanda had some awesome crafts that went along with each lesson of the day! It was a fantastic week!!!

Our brand new friend is working on the knobbed cylinders. This material is designed to assist children in making distinctions in their immediate environment. This material primarily engages the senses of touch and sight. 
When working on the Nine Tray the child will have a better understanding of the decimal system. They will also become familiar with the names and relative sizes of the categories. 
Ms. Amanda is working with one of our friends on one of our continent maps. I love these maps because it teaches the child the different countries in each continent. It also is a great work for them to gain fine motor skills, focus, and concentration.  
This cutie is working on the binomial cube. The purpose of the material is less focused on the complex mathematics behind the material, and rather is to provide a challenge for a child’s ability to find patterns and relationships between the blocks.

Please check out the sign up I sent out yesterday about the valentines day party!!

We love to go outside, so please remember to have your kiddo always come prepared for outside!!
