We had some fabulous Field Day fun today! The kids had a blast going through the stations playing fun games that required them to wheel barrel walk, crawl on their bellies, balance a ball on their head, and even look fashionable is extra large raincoats! After that we enjoyed our picnic lunch in the cafeteria and then watching Mrs. Honious get dunked in the dunk tank at recess. In the afternoon we had an entertaining assembly and then got to have some free choice activities outside to end the day. Phew, were we tired! I hope they all sleep well for you tonight! Have a great long weekend!
We had a great time last week having some unique learning experiences. First, We made pinch pots and used shells to add texture and design. Then we got to learn some hula hoop tricks, and play some fun games. Finally, we learned a little bit about the life and tools of the north east indigenous people. It was a fun for everyone to get out of the classroom and do some extra hands on learning! Thank you to everyone who makes this great event possible!
We had an amazing trip to Bushy Hill last week. The kids explored pond life from the micro organisms that can only be seen with a microscope to the very visible and lively animals that call the pond their home. First we got to see the hidden life in a drop of pond water using the bioscope. It was quite eye opening! Then we headed out to the Cedar swamp and learned how to identify some local trees and explore the swamp habitat. Finally, we headed out to the pond and used nets to catch some pond life. We found tadpoles, dragonfly nymphs, and salamanders. We all had a blast and the kids worked well together while learning and exploring. It was a great day!
