October activities....

FALL 2010 Kindergarten Co-op is back in full swing! I have about 8 five-year-old's every Wednesday in our home for 2 hours of hands-on learning, and then 1 hour of Physical Education - outside! This is the most kids I have ever taught at one time - and its definitely full of energy! The kiddos look forward to Wednesdays so much - and they are so fun to be with! Asia attends her own Co-op with friends her age down the hall.

Here are some picts of activities & crafts this month of October:
(my kids only, for privacy sake)

Eden making "Grandma's Scones" - using math skills!
The kids made the snack this day...and it was yummy!

Learning about plants & how they grow: Dyed Celery!
Eden was so proud of her blue celery stalk. She even ate it for a snack!
She also planted a bean - and watched it grow!

Family sing-along & music nights:
Eden showing some interest in playing guitar!!

Baking some delicious Banana Muffins together!

Can we get any more excited about Leaf Prints?

(learning about mixing colors, painting, using scissors)
...and here's the whole gang!


We also made orange scented playdough!

It has been a very full month of crafts & fun group activities together. These international kids are so precious & I cherish the time I get to spend with them.
