Happy Birthday to Elle! Yesterday we celebrated Elle’s 4th Birthday! We enjoyed delicious macarons and listened to Elle’s mom read us the story of swan lake over zoom! Afterwards Lochie presented Elle with her gift, a beautiful window hanging full of her favorite color blue and many light catching crystals. Wishing you all the best in this 4th year, Elle!

Yesterday we also had a chance to continue with our light and moon explorations. This time we used the overhead projector to project transparent images of the moon. We then used papers of varying size and density to change and distort the light.

And if you move this one, you get a blue half moon- Lochie 

A half yellow moon! - Jack 
Maybe we just put one moon- Marley
I put another one on and maybe there’s tons of paper that makes it hide. A ton of this kind of paper and it changes. - Jack

It’s the moon! It disappeared! 
It's a rainbow at the top

Interest in the light projection then evolved into an exploration of our shadows on the screen. Lochie took time to center the moon’s shadow adjacent to his while Elle, Violet and CC explored dancing and movement in front of the shadow screen.

Today we also had a chance to finish our paper suns. With a new blender in hand, we made the pulp and pressed our orange suns into shape.

We are so excited to continue with shadows, silhouettes and light and paper explorations when we return from the break!
