CInco De Mayo

It's Cinco De Mayo! What fun! Our school has been studying Mexico throughout the school year and we took advantage of the Mexican Holiday to embrace their culture. We attended a school wide assembly with authentic Mexican lunch and Mexican Dancers! But before that we made our very own sombreros!

Our sombreros were made out of leftover Easter Eggs.

Exploring the Habitat

After yesterday's crazy weather and floods we decided to take a trip out to the school's habitat to explore what the storm left behind.

Traveling by Bubble

As most children, we really love bubbles. Yesterday as we blew bubbles on the playground we loved watching how high they could fly or how far they traveled. Today we spent some time imagining what it would be like to travel in a bubble. Where would we go? What would we see?

After we had a little fun with bubbles we made spent some time describing what our trip would be like. Then we made ourselves into traveling bubbles! Keeping with our month's Earth theme, but better way to make bubbles than by recycling! This activity was great for tapping into our imagination, critical thinking, and fine motor control.

Bubbles

We will be working on some top secret projects the next couple weeks so forgive our lack of detailed communication! We will share all of our projects with you after a special day in May where we celebrate someone even more special to us!

We had a great time enjoying the spring weather today! We even had a chance to blow bubbles and catch a few.
