The Afternoon Class was a big help during snack prep this week. On Tuesday, they poured, squeezed, and mixed to make chia pudding. After the pudding had set overnight, we enjoyed it on Wednesday, and also helped Zoe slice bananas for snack time. It feels so fun to work together toward a tangible and delicious goal!
During choice time, we explored fresh flowers (leftover from our fundraiser) in our sensory table. Friends made bouquets, investigated the petals individually by plucking them off, and stuffed them into the various containers and tubes. “The flower smells good,” noticed Wylie.
We set out our light table for the class to explore with transparent building blocks and bugs. Some of the transparent blocks made their way to our window, and we looked through them to see the neighborhood tinted in different colors. “Everything’s pink!” said Lily.
Outside, friends organized themselves into a jumping game. Children stood on one of our low benches and practiced jumping onto the red rug repeatedly. We cheered together for each friend — “Yay, Willy! Yay, Henry!”
We had a lovely week ; here are some additional photos of our time together.
