Happy Spring, everyone!
We have been very busy with the bustle of spring transition, fall applications, teacher chats and conferences and we're ready and excited to give you a long overdue update on the fun going on in our classroom!
The cold winter months gave us the opportunity to expand our play indoors--exploring new interests and adding dimension to concepts of color and shape. For many weeks, we were on a sorting frenzy--sorting objects by shape, color, height and even weight.
Winter also meant lots, lots, LOTS of pretend tea -- mint, orange, raspberry and even bubblegum.
As winter melts into the warmth of spring, our friends use their senses to observe the many changes in nature. Prospect Park is full of birds returning to their greening habitats and water fowl noisily preparing for the nesting of spring. Our friends have observed the changes in the trees as buds grow slowly into blossoms. Many questions have been posed from our spring exploration that inspire more discovery and further inquiry. We are excited to see what our friends come up with as they begin to make sense of the fantastic transformation of our beloved park.
