Read Read Read 

the bible song

We read the story of 

Lazarus 

I told the children that each of these

stories are TRUE stories

even though the sound pretty amazing

and maybe even sometimes hard to believe

they are TRUE

Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead

and then many people believe

He is the Son of God after that

OUTSIDE

STORY TIME

NON FICTION 

Bria was 

weather helper

WINDY

Oliver was prayer

leader (his favorite job!)

Carson was snack manager

SNACK

SO MANY S words!!!!  

All the children are guessing we will need to start

a new S chart to write ALL the S words

they keep thinking of

A little experiment

an empty clear plastic container

an arctic animal (polar bear)

water

I asked the children what will 

happen if I put the polar bear

in the container and then fill it with

water and then stick it in the freezer

So many thoughts and ideas.........

so excited to share their ideas

It took several pitchers of water to

completely cover the polar bear

So friends also wondered if the bear was 

completely covered would he sink:

stay at the bottom  or float....

so we made predictions about that too

we talked about why

this polar bear sank..

he is solid plastic(no air inside)

the polar bear is more dense than the water

so he sinks

we also wanted to find

things that would float

glitter did at least for the most part

foam leaves float...someone said...like a surf board

everyone got to choose

their own sequins and add it

to the water.....

most floated but when we touched

them, they would sink....

I think they children could have done this ALL

morning

BUT I also knew they would be disappointed

if they didn't get any center time

It was already 10:30 and I think we started at 10....

they REALLY LOVED this!!!

I told them we were going to put it in the freezer

and check on it tomorrow

BUT I warned that this container is VERY full and it may

not be frozen solid by tomorrow

IF that is the case we will check it out on Thursday

For those kiddos not here...we will video our results

PLUS, I thought I would created a new container SO everyone gets

a chance to help break/melt the ice

CENTER TIME

Marble Race

Adding google eyes to

her snake

Bria and Addie spent almost the entire

center time in the ZOO

Hazel finding a place to 

hang her snake

getting ready to make flowers to

add to our butterfly garden

lots of creating and

problem solving with the marble race

LOTS of tissue paper

Nora said she is making beds for

the animals ... tissue paper is the blanket

These boys had a hard time decided between

balls & ramps

and marble race

and many times went back

and forth

Oliver really enjoys reading

and asked me to read a few stories with him

Hazel hanging her flower
