Week in Review 5/6 - 5/10


We decorated cups to transplant our marigolds in for Mother's Day. We also worked on cards.


The cups involved painting glue and sticking tissue paper so it was a bit messy but they had fun and were very proud to have a gift.



Mr. Finn and Ms. Heyward came around with the treasure box again. Tanea received a prize for her excellent transitions.


When we got to the library we started off with an educational video about trees but the kids were much more interested in reading than watching TV. If kids are going to beg me to turn the TV off so they can read how can I say no.


I really love our trips to the library because the kids are not just flipping through books but each one is reading. They are learning to find a book that is right for them and when they like a book that is a bit hard they go to a friend or teacher for help so they can read together.



After we were at the library we explored the area looking at all the blossoms that had fallen.



We put some beans in plastic bags with water to explore more about plant growth.


During Playworks Coach Crutch encouraged teamwork with a game of pattern memorizing and a game where partners had to work together to stand up without using their arms. 



On Monday Keilani shared about a fun weekend adventure to dinosaur day at the Newark museum.
