Zoo Review
We revisited zoo animals this week as our first theme of the summer. Some of us took this theme to heart and became zoo animals for the week. Lol! We also had a super cool art project this week… a giant Peacock! We loved doing all our old favorite activities… Of course, we also had […]
Montessori Rock n’ Roll
We jammed all week with musical instruments of all shapes and sizes. As a special surprise we also got to enjoy a fantastic musician thanks to Hunt’s awesome mom. He played an Irish Bouzouki and a Do Bro Guitar. Our art craft for the week was making drums. […]
Dinosaur Hunters!
Though much of this week was dominated by the assessments that always precede parent teacher conferences, we were still able to enjoy our dinosaur theme and have lots of fun! We have some new works and books that we love so much. We don’t just exercise our brains… we exercise our bodies, too! […]
Celebrating Mothers
This week in Children’s House 2-1 we were busy learning new songs in circle time and making special gifts for our moms to celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend. Miss Ebony taught our class several new songs that the children greatly enjoyed learning. This gave the children a chance to learn some new ways to exercise […]
Dinosaur Hunters!
This was a theme that easily got the majority vote as it’s always fun to dig in and discover dinosaurs! We got a bunch of books on the subject from the library that we’ve been studying. Plus we made a giant dinosaur footprint poster and a T-Rex skeleton. Then on Friday we made maracas in […]
Ten Dips in the Treasure Box
A record breaking number of academic challenges completed and wacky weather as a theme made this a fantastic week. We made a storm cloud with a bolt of lightning that was a great fine motor exercise between the gluing and cutting. We also did multiple painting projects that were made even more awesome by doing […]
Art, Earth Day, and Fun!
I’m not going to sugarcoat this, we flat out didn’t start our intended theme this week because I never made it to the library, but for sure I will this weekend so we’ll start Wacky Weather on Monday. Please feel fre to bring in any books, puzzles, or games you may have on the subject […]
National Champions!!!
We came in Monday full of excitement for the big game. Unfortunately this spilled over into music class and many of us ended up using terrible manners. Luckily there was redemption in the form of a challenge board. Show and Tell was on the line and my friends were determined to capture that elusive prize […]
March Madness: a lesson in social skills
I came across a fantastic stack of social problem solving books and have decided that in addition to supporting our beloved Tar Heels, we would talk about stuck vs. flexible thinking, matching the size of the reaction to the size of the problem, and the “hidden rules” that guide our daily interactions. But back to […]
