Group Meeting: Last week, the children helped me create a list of camping items that we could add to the Housekeeping area. Today, Mrs. Hoogheem brought a HUGE tent, and we were able to add a picnic basket with dishes, toy roasting sticks, toy marshmallows and hot dogs, and a lantern. The children would like to have sleeping bags. This is something that I do not have. If anyone would like to share a few child sized sleeping bags, we would appreciate it.
Story: Today's story was Whistle for Willie. Peter would like to learn how to whistle so that he could call his dog, Willie. He tries, but is unsuccessful. After playing for a while, Peter sees Willie coming down the sidewalk. He hides in a cardboard box and tries to whistle. This time, it works. Willie hears Peter whistle, but cannot find him. Peter jumps out of the box. Willie follows Peter as he runs an errand for his mother and whistles the whole way.
Small Group: The children used a fishing pole with a clothes pin on the end to fish for numerals. They took turns fishing and hiding behind a divider to put the fish on the line. Even after group time was over, they continued to play this game.
Large Group: We went to the Outdoor Classroom. We took the art supplies for the easels, two new bouncing balls, and the ramps.
Snacks: The morning class had Go-gurts and juice brought by Aidan. The afternoon class had crackers, strawberries, and juice brought by Kadence. Thank you!
