Friday, October 11

​We had a very active day in the Tucker Room. We missed Rachael, but had a great time with Katie, We also had two alumni guest helpers today—Jack’s sister Lucy and Austin’s sister Elizabeth. We continued to reflect on our field trip to the insect zoo with painting, drawing, and clay bugs and flowers.  

​“I notice something with the paint. When the sun touches it, the black kind of sparkles.” – Sally

​“This is a cocoon and all the butterflies are hatching out.” -Rowan

​Jossie and Lou Lou visited the easel in the atelier, and mixed a few paint colors they needed. 
 
“It’s orange perfecto!” –Jossie

​​Grace worked at the classroom easel, blending patterns with storytelling. 
 
“This is a pattern ship with a pattern on top.” –Grace

We also put together three puzzles, devised a series of treasure hunts with detailed treasure maps, and read a terrific book with lots of facts about bees. Whew, what a way to end the week!
