Day 100 and Global Play Day!

We celebrated Day 100 dressed as 100 year olds! These kids know how to age! One minute their backs hurt, and the next they were running around! I might need to ask them what their secret is!

















 We rolled the dice 100 times! Each time we would make a tally. We wanted to see which number we rolled the most. We were surprised by the outcome! There was a 3 way tie between 3 numbers!
 We saw how many times we could write our name in 100 seconds.



A few of my friends have earned 10 panther paws! So far we have had friends choose to read to a younger student or have extra playtime with a friend. Great job, kids!





Global Play Day was on Wednesday! The kids had a great time! I wish I would have taken more pictures, but I was playing too much! They loved being able to play board games and with other toys the kids brought.

Space Week and More Birthdays!

We have been celebrating a lot of real birthdays and half birthdays this month! We had 3 this week!


 Our birthday snack on Tuesday had bright green and blue frosting! We could sure tell who had a cupcake! :)


Space Day was on Wednesday! We started off with blasting off in our room. (If you haven't signed up for Seesaw yet and would like to, let me know. I posted a few videos from space day on there.)
The Space Center buzzed us and let us know that we were cleared for take off. We counted down from 10 and watched a real spaceship blasting off!

 We floated down to room 100 where we did space stations!
We made a moon craft.
 Tested space food (yogurt bites- baby food) and read books
 Made constellations with playdoh.

 Made a name rocket.
 Went through and space course with asteroids and mountains!

 These boys were patiently waiting to go to the next station after they finished their craft!









Another half birthday!

 These boys love their non fiction books!


 And another half birthday!
 We have started playing more board games at playtime. I have been playing with them for the first few times, but soon they will be able to play on their own. In case anyone wants to know, I won this game! :)
 We made the sun today!
"The sun is a star. It gives us light and heat."
We used foil to make it look like flames were coming off the sun.

 These boys were using glue bottles for walkie-talkies. :)

Math Games and Birthdays

Our new favorite math game is Connect 4! We roll two dice and have to add them together. Then we have to look for that number on the paper and try to get 4 in a row... but we need to pay attention because we need to block our partner from getting 4 in a row first! We get to play this math game whenever we finish a little early. I don't think they realize they are practicing their addition when playing it. :)










We celebrated a birthday on Thursday! Happy 6th birthday!
And on Friday we celebrated a half birthday! Happy half birthday!
