Two weeks already gone by? Can't be! May 16th


Hours Worked: (8:30-12:30)

This week was an awesome week! The kids were so great this week and so much fun! It was days like these that make me happy I did senior project! Today was a pretty normal day starting with free time and snack. There were only thirteen on them there today which felt like a very small group! Afterwards, they had morning meeting and centers. Hannah and I did a cooking center. Hannah had prepared dough the night before and today we had the kids make shapes and designs with the dough to create pretzels. They were all supposed to be in the shape of frogs but we soon realized that tadpoles were easier to make. Once they finished, the kids went to the Proctor gym and Hannah and I stayed behind to keep an eye on the pretzels and clean up from the center. It was cool because they left with the picture of what they created and came back to the finished product. The kids also got to paint an egg wash on it. They came out alright, but not as well as we had hoped. Most of the kids liked them, but some decided that because their best friend didn't like it, they weren't going to like it either. It was a fun project and we think the kids had a lot of fun playing with the dough. Once they came back from the gym they sat down for lunch and we handed out the pretzels. After they cleaned up from lunch Hannah and I headed off to our lunch. It was a fun day had by all!
