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.

Preparations Continue

We had another rehearsal today, and it went much better! The actors waited quietly for their parts, and we could here the lines much more clearly!
We also continued work on our costumes, using the sewing machine. Sadly it broke! Tamara will have to take it to the repair shop! If anyone has a sewing machine at home and would be willing to sew some hems on rectangles of fabric (it's super easy!) we would love some help!








Other goings-on:
moon-sand on the light table


Matthew's building




on a walk "somewhere we've never been"
"Do we go left or right?" the teacher asked. "Left!" the Turtles declared.

We found a group of rhododendron bushes that we had never explored.


It was like a secret world!
