This morning we continued our discussion of babies by asking the Owls: What do you want to know about babies? This meant friends sharing questions that they don't know, but would like to know the answer to. This concept was hard for some of our friends, because it is sometimes just plain hard for preschoolers to think about what they don't know. Instead, many Owls shared facts about what they already know about babies. Therefore, at morning meeting, we learned an important skill: How to ask a question. We agreed that usually a question has the words "how", "why", or "what" in it, and we ask questions when we want to know something. For some friends, the process of intentionally asking a question in order to gain knowledge is still unfolding, but we did come up with a very interesting list of what we want to know in regards to our babies study.
Do you remember three days ago when it was below freezing? Neither do we! The Owls made the most of this 60+ degree weather by spending a large part of our day outside, both on our playground and on the big kid playground. While outside, we worked on a bubble art project. Teachers mixed together water, dish soap, and liquid water colors, allowing friends to blow vigorous amounts of bubbles, then used paper to make prints of the bubbles. What a fun way to be creative while still enjoying the outdoors!
