Experimenting with oil pastels

We experimented with oil pastels in art today creating pictures of root vegetables. Afterwards, we used a water-based paint to color in the sky and ground. Learning more about the earth and all it has to offer.

Sprouting Lima beans

We have two Lima beans that have started sprouting. The Lizards were pretty excited to see their plants beginning to grow. We also found a ladybug on this glorious day.

Teddy Bear Picnic

While learning about the letter "T" this week, seems like a great time for us to throw a "Teddy Bear Party"! We had a special teddy bear inspired snack and read our favorite books to the bears. Happy Teddy Bear Day!

Planting Lima beans

This week the Lizards have been learning about how plants grow. Today, students planted a Lima bean in soil, watered it, then placed it in the sunlight. We'll check back each day and see if we begin to see them sprout.

Art - Making Paper

Students made paper today by experimenting with torn newspaper, water, and a blender. After combining ingredients in the blender, students squeezed the water out and let the paper dry in little balls. It was fun to feel the goopy, wet mess between our fingers!
