We rounded out our spirit week with lots of warm sunshine and pjs! We read tons of books with Dawn, had a Stuffy Show & Tell with Dominique, continued painting our dinosaur bones with Elsa, and repurposed pictures of art paintings with Holly. We also played musical yoga mats, went exploring in outer space with our super computer rocket ship, made coffee for the teachers, and built towers for Virginia to knock down out of magnatiles. Our delicious snack was french toast, berries, and bananas. Below are some Vermont Early Learning Standards highlighted in our play and some fabulous photos from our magical day. Happy Friday!
