After Our Field Trip

Picture day is Tuesday, October 9th (Yellow Group) and Wednesday, October 10th (Green Group).

We had such a wonderful time at the farm the other day that we didn't know if we could ever have such a good time at school.  Guess what.  We did today. 

Mrs. Whiteman had some milk pods and she broke one open for us.  Oh my goodness.  There were seeds and they had these white feathery parts attached to them.  We blew on the seeds and they flew up into the air.  We tried really hard to keep them up.  We laughed and laughed because we all looked so funny blowing in the air.

We went outside to the play yard and you won't believe what we found there.  We have new tables and blocks.  The big trucks from the block center were outside for us to use, too.  We just couldn't believe it.  Not only that, but we had playdoh which is one of our favorites.  We got to stay outside for a bit longer because the weather was so nice.  Hip hip hooray for outdoor play.

For our story today we read another Big Book and it was called, "Growing Pumpkins".  We learned all about how pumpkins grow from a teeny, tiny seed.  They were just like the pumpkins that Farmer Gene had at the Pumpkin Patch.  We sang "I'm an Acorn", "Grey Squirrel", and "Way Up High in the Apple Tree".

Our snack was apples and cheese sticks.  Yum.  Thank you, Addison.  We had a special helper today.  Max's mom came in and played with us.  Thank you.  For our art project, we cut up little pieces of orange paper, put them in a baggie and made a face on the baggie.  Then Mrs. Meyers helped us tie it up.  Guess what it made?
