It was FUN FRIDAY today--and it was totally FUN!  

All week we have been working hard to complete our work, manage our materials, and make sure we are in the right place at the right time so that we are able to work and learn!  Every time children transition quickly and quietly and follow teacher directions the first time, they are able to earn points. And lots of points equals lots of fun activities for Friday! 

We got to explore some real coconuts today!  We found out that coconuts are round, hard, scratchy, and they can even make a noise.  We also found out that coconuts can FLOAT!  See if your child can tell you why. 

We made some coconut play-doh to practice making letters and numbers.  Everyone is bringing home a little bit of play-doh to use at home today!  See if your child can use their play-doh to form their favorite letters, numbers, or shapes.  

We made some cute little Kindergarten pirates and even dug for some "treasured" letters just like the pirates in Pirates Go to School.

    

But WAIT...there's more!!  We had our school wide STEAM kick-off this afternoon!  We saw lots of really cool experiments, and there was even some assistance from one very special Kindergarten volunteer!
