Welcome Turtle Families!

Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs.We are so excited that so many people are sharing in the Turtle Day! Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

A New Way to Tell Stories


On Friday, the Little Frogs introduced us to a new tool, the camcorder and tripod! Today, the Turtles tried it out! Some Turtles loved telling their stories, others were a little shy at first. We have created a YouTube channel for the Turtles videos! Check it out:



We also did some more work on our box house, decorating the chimney with a variety of collage materials.
And, of course, playing in the giant box house.

At Morning Meeting, Madigan and Sadie told a story with puppets!



Movement with Missy was a blast with hopscotch, Cone-Up-Cone-Down, stretching, and bouncing on the spring board.
(a new video on our You Tube Channel!)






Outside, we frolicked on the playground, and at the logs.
