It was so much fun watching the class investigate a butterflies life cycle.

Fun painting activity! I set up some flowers in the center of a table for the kids to paint, the only thing was the kids could not move the flower pot. How many different ways can we paint one thing? This was  an easy way to teach the kids about perspective taking.

We were given specific animals and had to build a habitat those animals could live in. We made the Arctic, wet lands, grass lands, and the desert.

We did not know if it was going to work, but we did it… we grew crystals in our class. They are so beautiful to look at! 💎

We have had lots of fun exploring in our new mobile mud kitchen! I have noticed how well the kids work together outside to create and to problem solve when we go outside. We may not always want to get messy and that is ok, there are many more rolls to do in a group, for example: collecting rocks, flowers, water and much much more!

Playing outside has allowed us to explore literacy and math by creating mud kitchen menus, writing in the mud, reading recipes, measuring and balancing materials outside!

Last week we read the story Sometime I feel like a Fox by Danielle Daniel to begin our discussion around animals. Today we transformed into an animal from the story to see what it is like to be that animal for a day. Our guiding questions were:

What 4 things do I (the animal) need to survive?

And can I find those things in our forest?

We are growing our very own beans in the classroom. I wonder what it will look like? How big will our bean plants grow? How many beans will grow? What do the plants need to live?

Ms. Lister has planned so many wonderful yoga activities for our class. When the weather is nice, we can take our mats out to breath in the fresh air. And when we participate in yoga inside, Ms. Lister creates an inviting space for the class to feel safe and calm.

We had a blast getting messy with nature and glue!
