I tried to think of a cutesy title for today’s blog but I got nothin’. Today we explored our 5th sense which was touch. We touch things all day that are hard, soft , smooth , and rough. Littles don’t always have the words to explain what it is they are feeling past hot or […]
Its Fri-yay Y’all !
We are not perfect teachers but we certainly try to learn from our own mistakes . Yesterday we did not get in as much outside time. Today outside time was a priority. After breakfast I told the littles that we would be going back outside and one little girl said ” We have […]
