OUR BEANS ARE GROWING.....AND SO ARE THE CHILDREN

Bean pods
Pea pods
Poppy pods and
Seed pods
Split when they ripen
And they open with a POP!!!

Lots of growing activity around here as well.
We carefully water our plants each morning and then have our singing and circle time out on the grass.
Big trucks have been a recent big attraction and we walked up the street for a closer look at all the noise and work being done.

Working with the story, Tiki Tiki Tembo, we have created pictures with wooden ladders, acted out the brothers helping each other, and made a salt dough mountain complete with a working well.

After reading Pete's a Pizza, we made our own creative pizza's out of paper, acted out the story by rolling each other out across the floor and added toppings, and then made our own pizza from scratch.

Next week we will be talking about the ocean, all the creatures who live there, playing a special fishing game outside and sampling some seafood.

Thanks to Beth for bringing in some more sign language books and to Finn's dad, Jason, for giving us wonderful logs and stumps! These have added significantly to the children's play opportunities outside.

Appreciating all your encouragement and support.
Have a wonderful weekend.
