A long awaited day for sure, we finally had a chance to start painting our canvas! Today we added the blues of the ocean leaving space for the ocean floor below and the sky above. Because the weather was so nice, we decided to take the painting outside! 

Lochie: We’re painting the canvas of our ocean. We’re going to use it to tell ocean stories.
Violet: I just love it (the paint) right here. Look at what I made!
CC: We could add fish and sharks. Look! We’re putting our blue together
Elle: This is my blue!
Marley: I’m going to paint up and down 
Lochie: Let’s make the canvas disappear

​

CC: We could add fish and sharks. Look! We’re putting our blue together
Elle: Mine is a dark, light blue
CC: Mine is a light blue
Marley: Eh, mine is lightish

​

For those who weren’t interested in painting or finished early, we spent time coloring with chalk outside. Before we knew it  almost every brick had an individual color or design on it!

George: I did a pattern! It’s orange, blue, orange!
Jack: Mine is just rainbow, see the colors?

As we were finishing our painting, the sand and mulch guys came to replenish the outdoor classroom. While we were bummed to miss our time climbing and playing, it was so exciting to  hang out on the front lawn and watch the new landscaping materials get delivered!
