Song Birds

Did you see that bright circular thing in the sky today? We sure did, and took advantage of the amazing warmth it also provided. Lots of outside time today thanks to Four Winds and free time during the day!

Was a great day to "hang" around, roll and play. 

Sharing.......

 Yesterday Kamden brought in a birds nest.

Today Mazie brought in her glitter pouch.

Maddie brought in her electronic note pad.

Evan shared his game.

Four Winds.... Song Birds!

Our Four Winds volunteer, Ellen, came in to talk to us about Song Birds. We had a small puppet show about why birds sing. We then went outside to hear the many different birds there are singing outside.

We even practiced sounding like many birds that we learned about, as well as the times of days that the birds come out.


Great book today.....    How To Be A Friend A Guide to Making Friends and Keeping Them. We've been emphasizing friendships and how we can all be friends or friendly with each other.



Lungs and Stomach.... Today we learned about the the lungs and stomach. We observed the structure of the lungs. We talked about how the lungs help us breath, work with the heart to help pump blood all around our body. Take in "oxygen" (a fancy word for air) that helps our body function, etc. We learned that our stomach breaks up food we eat into energy our bodies can use.

 Here are a few friends who made their own lungs, each of the kids made their own to take home to share with their families.



REMINDER.... Strep is going around in our classroom. Many kids have been out sick this week. If your child isn't feeling well, be sure to have your child get lots of rest and hydration. Scratchy throats, tired little people and fevers are a couple indicators.
