Kinder Connect: Overwhelmed
http://suzanneawtrey.blogspot.com/2015/07/overwhelmed.html
Connecting educators with a world of resources for developing the whole child. Sunday, July 5, 2015. Do you ever get so overwhelmed with tasks that you just freeze? Two words.My Closet. Often I get so overwhelmed that I just close the door and ignore it. Since I can’t finish it in one sitting, I do nothing at all. And then nothing gets done. And the giant mess in my closet continues its monstrous stare telling me I’m inadequate. Rather than feeling as though I must accomplish everything in one sitting, I...

StrongStart: Spirals
http://strongstart.blogspot.com/2015/06/spirals.html
What was today's highlight activity? What happens at our program? Come and find out! Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Since we have snails in our little garden I decided to set up this provocation. The trays are covered with sand and there are small containers holding different. Loose materials beside each of them. I also printed various images of spirals that I Googled. I discovered that the sand just scattered everywhere so I made a change for day. Children and their grown up helped. June 26, 2015 at 3:17 AM.

What was today's highlight activity? What happens at our program? Come and find out! Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Every Wednesday during the month of May we did a collaborative art piece. Week #1 we started by squirting glue all around the canvas. The freedom to just squirt glue without any purpose except for doing. They loved it. Week #2 we coloured it with crayons. The crayons add more wax as well as colour to the canvas. Week #3 painting with watercolour. That the paint wouldn’t cover some areas.
