April 25 - 29

Week 33

3-D Shapes
We’ve been diving into 3-D shapes and their attributes these past two weeks! The kids have had fun taking the shapes apart and putting them back together. They’ve been noticing similarities and differences between the different shapes. I love that they’ve been noticing these different shapes around them!







Circuits
As you all know from our in-school field trip, we have been learning about circuits. Well this week we FINALLY received our own class circuit kit. We’ve been building multiple circuits with different types of switches and devices that we’ve connected to them. The kids have enjoyed creating the circuits and figuring out how all the pieces work.




Chess
Mrs. Jones has been so gracious to teach both our class and myself how to play chess. This is a new experience for us all and learning the rules to chess has been quite entertaining and fun! The kids have been learning how to maneuver the pieces and have been challenging students in both our class and Mrs. Jones’ class. We will be having our chess tournament on the 31st of this month!









Exploration Time
The kids love to use their exploration time to dig into new things. A few of the kids worked together to create a domino cascade. It didn’t quite work as they planned, but they are sifting through the kinks to make it work properly!




Club Day
As always, club day was a blast!






Girls on the Run

We did it…we did it…HOOOOORAY! Our young ladies (Tyla, Angel, Jordynn, Juliana, and Samaria) from Girls on the Run finished up their program and even more importantly made it through the challenging 5k run! I am so proud of these young ladies!
