Another Great Show

 After exploring with all the ci-craders all morning..... we came in and had our morning meeting.  We read a new story that fits with our question of the year, How might we transform our world for the better? The title of the new book is Take Care Here and Now.  It is all about how we could make the world a better place. 

We then explored in the classroom until we had enough adults to go on a walk.  Then, we saw another great show at the fire station!! We LOVE our neighborhood!

Cicadas in the Forest

Today’s visit to the Forest focused on finding cicadas. As the Acorns entered the Forest, they looked around and saw many cicadas. 

M. said, “There are cicadas everywhere!”

FCF. said, “I found two.”

Then O. found another cicada and counted, “One, two, three!”

T. exclaimed, “I found a bug. I want to catch it.”

Maybe next week we will bring the bug nets and houses.

Mine-O- Soar

The Acorns are making connections to the story Mine-0-Soar while playing with other Acorns.  While we read the story at meeting time, we discusses as a group if the Mine-0-Soar is making good choices..... In theory, we all know the right thing to do.  We just have difficulty transferring our new knowledge to practice. After a week of reading the story, they are now, asking each other if they are being a Mine-0-Soar.  So we are seeing progress.

A Place for Butterflies

 We have been reading A Place for Butterflies, and Mine-O-Saur (a book about sharing).  Although sharing is hard, we are trying to introduce the concept through literacy.  Then, when someone isn't sharing we can refer to the book.  As for A Place for Butterflies, we went for a walk to use the "Acorn Crosswalk" and ran into - A Place for Butterflies! Literally!!  Our train viewing spot was occupied, so we continue to walk to our hidden bridge.  We didn't see a train, but many cars drove under us and opened the garage door.  You may not think that it sound very exciting, but the Acorns LOVED IT!!

Kelly, Katie K and I would like to thank you for lunch, we greatly appreciate your generosity. We are grateful to have such amazing Families in the Acorn Room!!
