Welcome to our world of discovery and learning!

Welcome to our daily blog! We use it to share daily updates on our classroom, reflections on our learning with children, and photographs. Extended family, friends, neighbors, educators, etc, are also encouraged to follow the blog!
One of the wonderful aspects of blogging is that it allows real-time interaction between home and school. Is your child talking about what we are doing in school? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you interested (or even an expert!) in something we are studying? Leave us a comment and let us know! Are you planning an outing with your child to extend the classroom learning? Leave us a comment and invite other families along!
We also have a section call, "Learn More About..." When we write each post, we tag it with relevant topics. And so if you wanted to see what we have been doing with, for instance, science, you would click on that tag, and see all the posts about science.

Clay Day

Today, the Owls began talking about our new friend clay (No, not of the Aiken variety).
As our first experience with artist's clay, we went out into the hallway to really explore our new medium. We tried to mold it, roll it, claw it, smash it, slap it, elbow it, step on it, and more! Friends noticed that it was "soft, but hard" and "cold". One friend even explained "clay was super fun. I made balls. It feeled like a balloon."
We also enjoyed writing letters in a few different ways today, including rice and sand.
We also revealed that Kristin is having a....*drum roll, please*........BOY! Her ultrasound from the weekend revealed this wonderful news. Congratulations, Roth family!
