A Trip to the Koi Pond

It was the perfect day to get outside!  We took advantage of the nice weather and walked to the Koi Pond.   As we walk, children share their knowledge of the neighborhood.  Austin remembered riding bike around the Georgetown campus, and Grace M. let us know when we were almost back to the school.   It's also time to appreciate elements of the natural world.  Sally was struck by the "lovely waterfall" and noticed  that the birds were singing.  Lou Lou and others noticed some fuzzy buds on one of the trees.   Some children captured the scene with drawings, while others spent time observing the fish and the plants.

A Look at the Drawings

Children drew trees, the pond, the fish and people.  Louise was working on drawing her friends standing on the far said of the pond.  She noted that it was hard to do, since they kept moving.   She still was able to capture the correct number of people standing near the pond.  

Looking Ahead

Today, Grace D. and Ellie used the drill to prepare for future wood sewing.  Although Ellie was not sure she wanted to use the drill, her friend Maren (who had used the drill last week) coached her through the process.

The illustrations in our book were collages of houses.  Later this week, we will work on representational collages that connect to our building ideas.... and perhaps even our fashion design creations.    Stay tuned!
