Thanks to Eve Merrill for coming in last week and crafting hand puppets with the PreK children. Thanks to Miles for his craft design. Also, thanks to the Merrills for sharing special cookies with us at snack time on Monday!
Thanks to Melanie Ellis for the recyled Smart Water bottles. Caprice and Janie used them to make sensory bottles for the infant, toddlers, and twos classes. Caprice even fashioned a magical treasure chest and pirate ship for the chidlren at school--amazing.
Thanks to Sarah Justice for straightening the sticks on our "treehouse" when she thought no one was looking.
Thanks to everyone for great kids, great referrals, great support and patience!

This week has been one of technical difficulties--with our blog, camera, internet, and even phone service! We are back "up" in all regards, so we wanted to show you what we've been up to this week . . .
Highlights from the Infant/Toddler Room:
Luke and Jack crash after a busy morning.
Gage likes the new rocking chair from Cole's family.
Highlights from the Twos Room:
Sure, our camera isn't the greatest. But note that pictures from the Twos Room are blurry because they are always on the move! Painting was so much fun we did it two times this week. Gavin . . .
Kai. . .
Washing hands. Christin asks the kids if they want to do "bubbles".
Waylon . . .
Kaleb . . .
Waylon and Kai after nap. Kai loves books, and Waylon found a big airplane from the PreK next door. This week the class enjoyed Brown Bear and Polar Bear by Eric Carle. They talked about colors.
Highlights from the PreK:
Making monkey bread on Wednesday. First, roll dough into balls.
Then top with cinnamon, sugar, and butter.
Our tale this week was Rapunzel. We read the story without pictures, read it with pictures, acted it out, and told it orally, with the help of the children, over the course of the week. Here, Iris-Rapunzel is letting down her yellow hair from her silken tower. Catherine is starring as the evil witch . . . 
Michelle helped the children crush egg shells and dye them last week. This week she helped them make an eggshell collage.
Michelle's class has enjoyed having a queen or king for the day. They wear a special pasta adorned crown!
At Community Time and at the writing table, we began working with letters that have round components . . . B, C, D, G, O, P, Q. Michelle helped the children decorate some of the letters with objects around school that start with the letter. B got some beans, C got some Cheerios, and P got some pasta.
We practiced moving stones with bamboo tongs this week.
