Snack: Cheezits & appleslices Book: That is Not a Good Idea read by Ryan Luhning, Assistant Principal, CHS We interviewed Harlow at morning meeting today to get ideas about how to decorate her birthday card. Then the children took turns at the message center adding drawings of the things she likes to the card, as well as signing it with their names, and photos.
Book: Panda-Monium at Peek Zoo Snack: Cheese Sticks, Crackers, and Grapes We continue our work in blocks with our zoo. During morning meeting, children were asked the question, "What do you notice about the zoo?" Eloise: I noticed the camels and tigers are in different places. Mia: There are baby pandas and baby polar bears. Suzette: All of the different animals are separated. Sigrid: There is food now! Ellie: The panda moved from where I put it at first. Birk: The train holds the people and they ride around the track. Brady: I think the people are too big to fit on the train. Only the teeny tiny baby animals can ride on the train. Harlow: The baby pandas and the polar bears and the baby elephants play together. Sometimes they come out of their cages to play. During small group time, Lauren, Harlow, and Suzette talked about what they should do next in the zoo. Lauren: Let's draw pictures so you know where the animals go. So you put the animals in the right place. Harlow: We need signs for the zebra and camel's cages because they don't have one. Put a sign for a tiger too. Suzette: So they can pick up animals and know where they go. The children decided which animal they would make a sign for. They used print in the classroom and stretching out words to write the names of the animals. Suzette worked on the sign for the camels, Harlow created the sign for the tiger, and Lauren worked on the sign for the zebras. After finishing the signs, the children played in the zoo. Lauren, Harlow, and Suzette wanted to paint the food for animals. They gathered the food and painted it in the studio.
