It was a backwards day for KW today.  We took advantage of the beautiful weather by playing outside even before lunch.   In the photo on the right, the children are deciding who will be it for a game of tag.  There was also tree climbing, bike riding, and a dinner party of potions for witches.

After lunch, a group of children started working on the construction challenge.  Today, it was all about bridges.  Photos of Key Bridge, the bridges over the canal, and a bridge from Montrose Park.  Carl and Jay recognized the bridges right away.  Children also talked about their knowledge of these bridges based on their own context.
    Carl - Hey, that bridge is so close to my dad's work!
    Jay - Look at these bridges!  Which should we build?
    Carl - Let's build this bridge first (bridge over the canal).
    Jay - And we can build Key Bridge second. 
    Carl - We need hollow blocks first.
    Mac -(With cardboard pieces)I'm going to work on the shore.
   Carl - We need more hollow blocks.  Once I went on that bridge and I had an ice cream.  If you cross the bridge, you go one block to my dad's office.
    Jay - I'm going to do the steps.
   Cassius - There's one bridge by my house and we have to cross it to go from here to my house.
   Jay - The Key Bridge goes from one side (of the river) to another.
   Ellee - And I go on Key Bridge when mom and I go to Michael's to get supplies.  

The classroom work also featured building on a smaller scale.  Last week, children created a model of the Bishops Garden with materials.  Today, they used the hot glue gun to make a more permanent replica of the garden.  Of course, Mandalas, puzzles and Halloween books rounded out our day.
