Bees are all the BUZZ!

10/7/2014

Last week our Bluebonnets buzzed all over Green Sprout learning all about bees! We discovered how bees make honey and help pollinate our flowers! Our friends also shared books and information cards about bees and we learned all about their colonies, stingers, hives, and honeycombs!

Our art projects were super sweet and fly just like our Bluebonnet bumblebees! We made honeycomb print paintings using small squares of bubble wrap and orange and yellow paint. Our Bluebonnets also used their best and very own art utensils - their fingers! - and yellow paint to finger print bees on to a canvas drawing of a honeycomb!

With our brains fully exercised from all of our new knowledge about bees, we were more than ready for our Spanish class with Miss Daphne and our second week of Chinese class with Miss Siugi! We sure do love language at Green Sprout!

Our minds were buzzing with all of our learning and mental exercise so we were very excited to put our bodies to work for our last week of double yoga in the classroom! As the weather has started to cool down lately, we might soon be saying goodbye to our bumblebees, but we are definitely saying hello to much more outside playground time running, playing, and tending to our gardens!

Our Bluebonnets are very eager and excited to welcome the fall season, and created a feather and beaded hanging sculpture to embrace nature and the changing seasons even more into our classroom. We know that autumn will inspire many more nature-based art projects and we can't wait to get started!

Have a wonderful and peaceful week!

Love,
Jodie
