Oh Evergreen …

Today our newest friend started to school. He wasn’t really NEW NEW as his big brother Gabe has been coming to school here for months.  This is Jude .  He took Molly’s place.  I didn’t get to talk to Mom today since I had an appointment at pick up time ( So sorry Sara ) but he did AMAZING. You couldn’t even tell that he was a newbie.  He blended and had so much fun.  We are happy you are here , Jude !

The leaves are BEAUTIFUL!

These two pieces got nailed together today.  I THINK this is Nathan .  Tryston didn’t wear his glasses today so I am second guessing myself.   This is Nathan, isn’t it mom.

So, boys are genetically competitive. ]

If Nathan can hammer together a piece of wood, surely we ALL can.  

Green solo cup Christmas tree .

I added star bright connectors today .

Oh Christmas tree Oh Christmas tree.  The provocation I set out today were different kind of ever green pieces with assorted tools. There was a ruler and a magnifier. There were small scissors and this mortar and pestle .  The kids could grind the evergreen pieces and smell the strong aroma from the oils it releases.

We had a visitor today.  Marcy has been coming to our place for years.  She usually comes to do a review of our environmental rating scale . Today she came to play and discuss the Reggio philosophy with me and what I might could do better.  She is a wealth of information.   She gave me a few tips but said we were doing wonderful.
