Our "DINO-MITE" Project and Museum Trip
Our transition class and Mrs. Celeste's class just finished up a month long dinosaur adventure. It was so much fun to be able to incorporate dinosaurs into all areas of learning. In the center room, we were able to add dinosaur figurines into the sensory table and block table. The kids imaginations went wild!
We found a few different ways for the kids to excavate mini dinosaurs. We made eggs out of ice and baking soda. The kids were able to use salt water, tools, and vinegar to free the dinosaurs.
During our daily circle time, it was fun to teach the kiddos new dinosaur songs, read books about dinosaurs, and play games. Our transition class loved being able to see how many popsicle sticks and shoes would fit in a large dinosaur footprint. Celeste's class had fun wearing their dinosaur hats during their circle time.
The art center is the perfect place for the kids to be creative. They were able to make dinosaur skin paintings using bubble wrap and their favorite paint colors. They also used various cut out shapes to create their own origianl dinosaur.
We ended our adventure with a trip to the Museum of Osteology. The kids participated in an animal movement class and were able to explore the whole museum and touch several types of animal bones.

Ms. Amy's One-Year-Old Class
"Children learn as they play. Most important, in play, children learn how to learn"- O. Fred Donaldson
Each Fall I get a new group of sweet kids and I'm always amazed
how much they grow and learn in just a few months time.
This is our class' first blog post for the school year, so I have lots of pictures to share
to show you what your children have been doing during our class time.
"The child must know that he is a miracle,
that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been,
and until the end of the world there will not be
another child like him" - Pablo Casals
"If you're happy and you know it...." is one of our favorite songs.
Painting with apples
Painting with shaving cream and splatter painting by shaking a box

Mrs. Christy's 3 year olds - Building Project and Fall Fun
Mrs. Christy's class started off the school year with a building project. We had fun building with many different materials including cups, cardboard pieces, scented play dough, and popsicle sticks. Who says you can only build with blocks! Although, we did enjoy building with wood blocks and legos too.
We set up a dramatic play area for the kids to pretend to be construction workers and used hammers to pound golf tees to work our fine motor skills.
Mrs. Amy's Friday class kicked off the Fall season with a science experiment. We were mesmerized by adding vinegar and baking soda to hollowed out apples. It makes it even more fun to add food coloring!
Fall is now in full swing and we have been having so much fun with our sensory table. We have got to experience pumpkin pie play dough, glow in the dark slime, and colored pasta. We have been practicing counting through play and love being an active part of story time.

Ms. Amy's Class (1 year olds) Fall 2013
These awesome kids in my class
have been very busy learning while
having lots of fun this Fall!!
It's amazing how much they have grown
and changed just since August.
"The Value of Play"
'You say that you love your children, and are
concerned that they learn today.....
...as am I, that's why I'm providing a variety
of kinds of play. You are asking what's the value
of having your children play? Your daughter's
creating a tower, she may be a builder someday....
...You're asking me the value of blocks and sand
and clay. Your children are solving problems, They will
use that skill every day...
You're questioning the interest centers. They just
look like useless play. Your children are making choices,
they'll be on their own someday...
...You're worried your children aren't learning
and later they'll have to pay. They're learning a
pattern for learning, for they'll be learners always.'
~ NAEYC
Thank you so much for letting
me be a part of your child's
life!
