Welcome back!  We have a few new friends joining us this term.  It is always an exciting time for children who showed up with their stories from their break.  Some children told us that they spent their time in their hometown, and some stayed in beautiful Vancouver for their holidays.

It is always fun to bring out lego in our classroom as children can use their imagination to create anything they want.  A few of them played together and they lined the lego up constructed buildings, chairs, and cars.  Some children seemed to simply enjoy the act of holding the pieces in their hands.  Some liked to use the same colors and some liked to use different colors.



We had another station for pegs last week.  I am surprised that children did not play the same way that we anticipated.  Some flipped the board over and pretended it was a table with many legs by putting the pegs in.  Others saw and started to do the same.  C said "many legs many legs".


For art, we put out materials that ensure projects that are open-ended, which will give children room to imagine.  We put out Q-tips, paint, chalks, glue stick, tissue paper, paintbrush, crayons and pastels and children just love it!


It is so amazing to see each of the children grow and develop new skills every week.  We can't wait to incorporate more challenging activities to our little brainers soon!
