Continuing the Line | Rock Mining | Light Projecting | Ava

Extending on our exploration of Line Art, this week, we read another book by Laura Ljungkvist, Follow the Line Around the World. This time, we followed the line around the earth, from the camels of the Sahara Desert to the blue whales of Greenland, from the giraffes of Kenya’s grasslands to the kangaroos of Australia’s Outback, and more. We touched on the informative facts, and when they're a bit older, we can go back to it to learn more facts, and also understand the gentle environmental message.

Mining for Rocks

We continue our focus on rocks, and Lulu's mama brought in these super cool mining kits (thanks Mama Lisa!). The children sifted, dug, and "mined" for rocks. Check out what they found.











Projecting Light
I invested in an overhead light projector, and it's a hit. The light projector is a wonderful addition to our program because it will provide starting points for conversations, discussions, and opportuntities for small groups of children to play together cooperatively.
