nature - continuing our learning about seeds!

On Tuesday morning we had our first nature experience. With the support of three knowledgable and skilled parents, the children learned about seeds through a silly and informative puppet show as well as a hands on exploration outside. Thank you Jen, Katie, and Ben for offering your time as well as providing a joyful and engaging learning experience!

 

 




On Thursday afternoon, Anne provided an additional and unique learning experience. Through movement, she encouraged the children to think deeply about seeds and how seeds travel - experiencing the movement of seeds through their bodies and changing emotions.

Anne supported the children in growing from the ground, strengthening their stems, and sprouting leaves towards the sun. As the wind picked up, their bodies moved through the classroom. It was an opportunity for indoor movement on a cold and wet afternoon, as well as an opportunity to integrate yoga, movement, and interpretive dance into our learning. Thank you, Anne!
