Today was a day full of laughter, critical thinking, imagination, and dancing! We had a Beyonce dance party with Elsa, added more details to our maps with Dominique, built houses and garages out of magnatiles with Dawn, and continued our sewing projects with Holly. We also experimented with the magnatiles in the water table, read books, excavated dinosaur bones, and had a special visitor - Dominique's cat, Frosty Twinkle Toes! Our scrumptious snack was smoothie, green snap peas, and blue chips. Below are some of the Vermont Early Learning Standards highlighted in our play and some photos from our fantastic day!
