Week 3, Day 1: Science Week Begins with Tornadoes

FIELD TRIP CHANGE!!

All Groups Will Be Going to The Boston Museum of Science!

Still a 2pm Return.

Somewhere something incredible is waiting to be known.

Carl Sagan

The discoveries made today were endless!  Groups created tornadoes in a bottle and their eyes were wide with amazement watching them spin.  Some groups designed their own planets and created mini solar systems with some of their friends.  We tried an experiment with Diet Coke and Mentos that did not go so well, so we might try it again tomorrow.  Other groups went on a nature walk trying to complete a Bingo board finding leaves, rocks and more!  We even amped it up with a game of element tag and some discoveries with pH levels as well!  The experiments and discoveries continue tomorrow!

As mentioned above, we had to change the field trip to have all groups go to the Museum of Science.  Timing is still the same, but no groups will be going to the Children’s Museum because they could not fit us in during the time we needed.  Please remember to send in permission slips!

Week 2, Day 4: The Perfect Pool Day!

 

What a beautiful day for a trip to the pool!  The water was a bit chilly, but it was refreshing on a day like today.  Before heading to the pool, we were entertained by some of the staff with a fun mythical adventure performed in the field about a group of brothers in search of a magical conch shell!  After that, we were off to the pool where there was lots of splashing and laughing as everyone cooled off in the water.

As promised, next week’s permission slip has been posted.  Please read the information carefully as we will be in two different locations and we will be returning later than normal.

Finally, a Red Sox hat has been misplaced and we wonder if it may have accidentally ended up in the wrong backpack.  Please let us know if it is located.

Cannot believe we are already through two weeks!  Next week’s theme is science and the fun will continue!  Have a great weekend!

Week 2, Day 3: Did They Find Dory?

The first field trip of the summer was a super success!  Everyone had fun seeing Finding Dory and it is always nice to see a movie on the big screen without the normal loud sounds that many of us are used to at the movies. The volume was perfect and the lighting allowed us to come in and out of the theater easily when we needed to.

Tomorrow, we head to the pool for swimming.  Please send your child(ren) in bathing suits, if possible, so they will be ready to get on the bus when it is time to head to the pool.  If your child(ren) need any swimming assistance (floaties, wings, etc), please be sure to pack them tomorrow as well.

Next Week’s Details

Next week’s theme is SCIENCE and our staff has some awesome activities planned that will be interesting and exciting! Our field trip on Thursday will be to Children’s Museum (Red and Orange groups) and Science Museum (Yellow and Green groups).  Here is the permission slip:
