Week 6, Day 1: Passports Ready for Transportation Week

Today began our week of transportation. Kids worked to design their own passports for our travels tomorrow. Some groups made airplanes, while other groups worked to get ready for our big country fair tomorrow with trains, planes, and more. Some groups played games that had them working together to find the different states in our country and other groups were pretending to be part of the Olympics with countries competing in various games.

Tomorrow, as mentioned, is our big country fair where kids will travel through the Sunshine airport to visit places such as England, France, Australia, Argentina, and more! Be sure to ask them what they are learning this week!

Please remember permission slips and waiver forms for this week’s field trip.  Don’t forget orange shirts on Thursday (but with bathing suits underneath!).

Week 5, Day 4: Final Day at the Pool

The end of animal week was filled with fun and excitement! The aquarium was an awesome adventure as we learned about penguins, sea lions, lots of different fish, eels, rays, and more. There was a turtle in the big tank that was bigger than some of the kids and some groups were lucky enough to see an aquarium worker dressed as a scuba diver feeding all the fish.

Today, we spent our last day at the pool and the weather was beautiful! Everyone had a great time splashing, swimming, and playing with all the friends that they have made this summer!

Next week’s theme is TRANSPORTATION and our field trip will be to Hopkinton State Park for kayaking and swimming. Permission slips will be posted on the website this weekend.
