Mantras, Table Pose, and Dr. Seuss

Che discovered some broccoli today.
He informed me that he "loooooves broccoli!"



Yoga
Ms. Krista taught us some new poses today. I tried recording part of the yoga session today, but my battery went dead (it had been on the charger all morning??). I'm super video camera impaired. I need someone to come in and start filming snippets from our day for us.

Check out that table pose!




Ms. Krista finished off with reading this book (ack! I forgot the title...I had to take a wee one for a potty break in the middle of it).



We also read from Head to Toe by Eric Carle and Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.

Art
Here's a sample of work your children did with the black and white color exploration. I will be adding more soon.





This week, we're beginning a watercolor exploration.




We've been listening to Mantras for Children a lot lately. I first heard this CD when Ms. Krista played it while we made dreamboards during a workshop I attended. I love everything about these mantras. And they're perfect when we are working on our art explorations. You can hear a clip HERE

A snippet from Monday. Playsilks seemed to be the choice of the morning for play, along with dancing along to some flamenco music by Ottmar Liebert.


And some fun napkin art found in Damon's lunch box this week.



I found a great way to manage my documentation and anectodal notes, so in the next few weeks, I'll be sharing with you part of your child's portfolio!
