Today for computer class, we played Snakes and Ladders!
We played with a partner and it was a lot of fun!
(this game is very similar to Chutes and Ladders)

Monday... Discovery Day
This week we discussed the sense of SMELL!
We got to smell different smells and try and guess what the smell was.
Some of us mentioned that when they smelled something, like the pickle juice, they could actually taste
it! We learned in our story, that the sense of smell and the sense of taste are very closely related and
work together!
Some of really liked our smells and some smells... not so much!

Tuesday... 11/23
Today we had fun swimming!
We had a "beach day" which is a fun, free-for-all swim time!
We got to play water basketball, swim with the noodles, the barbells, and jump off the sides!
For those of us who felt brave, we also swam to the deep end and got to jump of the starting blocks!

COOKING CLASS 11-22-10
During Extended Day this afternoon we read the book, Cranberry Thanksgiving. It is a story of a man who wants to try to find out the recipe for the cranberry bread a local Grandmother makes and serves at Thanksgiving. The recipe is included at the end of the story. So, we made cranberry muffins today! Before we could get started, the children cut the fresh cranberries (with plastic knives, of course!). These muffins made for a yummy treat at our afternoon snack!
Happy Thanksgiving!

ART CLASS 11-19-10
In today's Art class, Mr. Cicetti talked to the Pre-K children about clay and how to work with it. He also showed them the kiln in the Art room where he "fires" clay creations so they harden. Children could choose to make a clay pot today in Art, which Mr. Cicetti will "fire" in the kiln.

During Extended Day Pre-K this afternoon, we painted with corn on the cob! The corn cobs produced a unique design on the paper.
