END OF THE WEEK 



This week at the co-op I was filling in for a friend helping in the 3-4 year old class.  Of course little man wouldn't stay in his 2 year old class without me so he joined me in the class.  The theme for the week was CSI, so the kids discovered what was in apples, taste of an apple, and parts of an apple.



Afterwards they got to enjoy eating their apples and then some play time at the park.



Little man loves all things Batman and swords.  My mom came home and surprised him with a Batman teddy bear, he was so excited and couldn't stop hugging him.  

It's been a great week full of lots of fun and learning.  He learned about the letter Pp, number 16, hemisphere shape, water, and reviewed the color orange.  Unto next week to see what adventures are in store for us.

WATER
     By:  Amy Ludwig VanDerwater

Water 
is clearly 
a mystery 
to me.

A solid?
A liquid?
A gas?
It's all three.

Freeze it.
Warm it.
Boil it.
You'll see.

Water 
is clearly 
a mystery 
to me.
