Happy Thursday!

Martha and Johanna talked about what they should write on their note to the dragon. They taped their notes to the stew they left out for the dragon to eat. Ben enjoying school. The girls having a Thursday dance party.

Stew for Scorch (the dragon)

Thawing out the homemade stew for the dragon. Trying some of the yummy stew.

Chilly Monday!

Painting... Science experiment... We used baking soda and vinegar. When we dropped the vinegar on the baking soda it fizzed! Friends made a dragon castle using the blocks in the motor room. An obstacle course made by Morgan.

Dragon stew

We gave the dragon ice cream and he told us he was still hungry! We decided to make him some stew! We decided on ingredients and then made our stew! He gets to eat it next week (we'll be trying the stew too!).

Drawing for the dragon

Image
Here's what the kids said about their drawings for the dragon... Johanna said, "my castles going to fly, I put pixie dust on it." Finn said, "my castle has a car coming out of it so it can drive to the dragon. The knight is going to fight the dragon and he's going to put him in the fire." Valerie said, "that me in my castle with a pretty dress on." Cash said, "it's a plant with a flower." Paul said, "my castle of different colors, the nice dragon lives there." Martha said, "I drew a picture on the front and back. The castle is on the front and the dragon is on the back. The dragon lives in the castle."

Smoothies!

Image
The kids were talking about what we did during the day last Wednesday and a few of the children started talking about what they were doing in the bakery. They were pretending to eat fruit! We started talking as a group about the different ways that we eat fruit and when one child started telling the kids about drinking fruit smoothies all the kids got excited! We then made a list of the different fruits that we would want in our smoothies. Thanks to all of our wonderful families we got all of our fruit and made smoothies today!

Ice cream for the dragon....

Johanna is filling her bowl with ice cream for the dragon. Yellow and purple room friends filled their bowls with ice cream for the dragon. They left the ice cream outside the classroom for the dragon to eat. The sign says, "Dear Dragon, Here is some ice cream."

Yellow Room Fun!

Today, Dottie, Valerie's mom, was our mystery reader. Thank you Dottie for reading us such a fun story! Leila is working hard making a list of ingredients we need to make smoothies. Cash and his creation made out of gears.
