Movin' and Groovin'

We moved and grooved all week with our friend Pete the Cat and his jazzy tunes.  During this week we made many different musical instruments, sang and danced to all different bean bag songs and even practiced making different beats with various musical instruments. During circle time we did a morning stretch and while outside we participated in multiple obstacle races!

Dinosaur Detectives

During our Dinosaur Detectives week we had so much fun learning about many different dinosaurs.  We learned about the T-Rex, Stegasaurus, Brontosaurus, and the Triceratops.  We learned that there are plant-eating dinosaurs and there  are meat-eating dinosaurs.  During the week we made textured dinosaur collages, we mixed up different ingredients to make dinosaur imprints, and we made dinosaur necklaces.  The children also really loved using different tools to find dinosaurs in the sand.

Ocean Commotion

Our first week of camp was wonderful! We learned all about the ocean and specifically about certain ocean creatures.  We learned about crabs, jellyfish and even what it's like to be a fish. Through the week we made many different crafts like our jellyfish, our beach sun catchers and even our cool beach scenes with crabs! 

This week is all about dinosaurs! We will be doing a dinosaur dig While learning about many of our dinosaurs like the T-Rex, the Stegosaurus and the Triceratops. 

This week they are predicting very hot days ! We will be adjusting our schedules so that the children can go outside right after everyone arrives to help with the heat. Please remember to send water and to put on sunblock before camp.

First Day of Camp

We had a wonderful first day at Summer Camp getting to know our friends!  Today we made textured collage sea creatures and paper plate fish (hanging on hallway bulletin board) while we talked about the ocean and the creatures that live within it. We read the beautiful story , "Commotion in the Ocean" by Giles Andreae that had wonderful short rhymes about many ocean animals.  While outside, we played fish bean bag toss, drew with chalk, and played ring toss. We finished the morning with lunch and an ocean song before we said goodbye.  Can't wait to see everyone tomorrow for more ocean fun!
