Fun day at World of Bounce and Future Plans

We had a very fun day at World of Bounce and a lot of tired children on the way back to school!  Next week we will continue to learn about winter and learn about colors.  The children are starting to read Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?  We will also work on our bird feeders to help out our feathered friends.


We have a lot of children that like to paint so we'll be planning some more painting opportunities next week.  We'll also play around with black paper and wet and dry chalk to see what we can learn about colors.  This week we'll prepare for our ice races on Tuesday, January 31. We will freeze water in several different containers and then do some experiments to see how to melt it and what effects how quickly it melts too.  Then we'll take some of our ice structures to the gym and race each other and predict how far each one will go.  We can also measure and mark their distances and compare the sizes of our structures to see which ones will go the furthest.
