The Blossoms Buzz – week of 1/27/25 – Dinosaurs

Dinosaurs

This week the children had a thrilling time learning about dinosaurs! They explored how dinosaurs lived millions of years ago and discussed fascinating facts like how these creatures were reptiles, with some being carnivores and others herbivores. They also learned about the important role paleontologists play in discovering dinosaur fossils. The kids were especially curious about why dinosaurs went extinct, and we delved into the idea that an asteroid may have hit earth causing dirt and dust to go into the atmosphere, blocking out the sun. The children enjoyed many hands-on activities, including digging through a sensory bin to unearth dinosaur bones, labeling different dinosaur parts, and matching each dinosaur to its corresponding skeleton. It was a ROARsome week!

Grandparent’s Day

Our special Grandparent’s Day was a heartwarming celebration, where grandparents were invited to visit and spend quality time with their grandchildren. They enjoyed a collaborative work session, where grandparents and Blossoms worked together on various Montessori work activities. It was a joy to see them share in the learning process. Families had the chance to explore the book fair, picking out new books! The excitement continued with a fun and science experiment with Mr. John! What a wonderful day, and we’re so thankful that our grandparents could join us!

Enrichment Spotlight – Music with Ms. Lisa!

In music class, the children were captivated by the story of Peter and the Wolf, learning how each character was represented by a different instrument. They enjoyed listening to the music and identifying the sounds of the instruments, helping them connect the story to the melodies and rhythms that brought it to life.
