Today we:
- removed the foil forms from our stepping stones and found out they are heavy!
- painted mint leaves and used them to print butterfly wings on paper. We cut out the butterflies and hung them from interesting branches for a mobile.
- ate water melon for snack using toothpicks. We also had Ritz crackers and grapes. Did you know that a toothpick fits into the hole of a Ritz cracker and you can eat Ritz on a stick?!
- experimented a bit with water color pencils
- watched a tiny spider crawl on the netting wings of a painted rock.
- read Spaghetti on a Hot Dog Bun
- watched a beetle swim around a saucer of water. A slug joined him. Soon, the beetle wings came off and he didn't live any more.
- discussed how Copper made a really bad choice when he decided to snag Natalie's bean burrito at lunch. We talked about how Copper is not a bad dog but just that he made a really unfortunate decision. Copper had to stay inside when we had ice cream!
- made ice cream for a super special end of week snack. We had chocolate and/or caramel syrup on top of the ice cream
