The first week of April usually marks springtime… and the children felt it in the classroom last week for sure. Monday started with some rain but it dried out quickly on the playground for the rest of the week. The boys and girls talked about spring, read books on it and did springtime activities. They each came home with a cute picture of ducks waddling across the paper using their fingerprints and various shapes after reading the wonderful book, Make Way For Duckings. They also played Duck Duck Goose in keeping with the theme and staying indoors for recess. The girls were delighted to play with playdough and the sand table indoors as those don’t come out too often. The week ended with outdoor play thankfully and Abby even discovered the first flower blooming in the play area- she was pretty excited! We all can’t wait for spring to officially be here and with that, the warmer temperatures!
