Happy Tuesday everyone!

Today we talked a little about outer space. I explained how the sun was a very large star, and how there are other stars in the sky. We pointed out the moon, stars, and planet earth up on our circle time board. We sang 9 little planets to the tune of 10 little fingers. 

For our art activity we decorated a star. I passed out small pieces of yellow paper. Everyone watched me as I created a star on their paper out of glue, then everyone got a chance to sprinkle red glitter on their star. To finish it off, we set our stars in a tupperware to shake and allow the rest of the loose glitter to stick to the glue. It was very exciting.

In the afternoon we had yoga with Abbey. We sang our regular songs of Rub Your Hands, Float Like a Butterfly, and The Itsy Bitsy Spider. Everyone enjoyed practicing their animal poses and showing off their downward dog poses. After yoga we had snack and went outside where we watered the garden and ate some kale. Next week is our Earth Day celebration and we are going to start working on some earth focused activities. I hope everyone is having a good week so far.

Xoxo
