This week the caterpillars welcomed Chloe to our class. Together we had a lot of fun playing outside! We love to climb, ride on bikes, go down slides

and play in the water! Next week we start our summer adventure with a unit on trains! On Thursday, we will take an actual train ride from Crystal Lake to Palatine and back! The children are so excited!

Have a great weekend!

This week in the butterfly room we did a lot of different science experiments! We painted with the inside of a highlighter and ice.

We also talked a little bit about the study of dinosaurs and we made dinosaurs with Q-tips as bones! We chiseled dinosaurs out of ice with popsicle sticks. We had dinosaur eggs with dinosaurs inside and we dug for dinosaur bones in the sensory table! We played with playdough and enjoyed some time playing at the new park.

We welcomed Ms. Malerie and Sam to the Butterfly classroom.

Next week we are going to talk about ocean life!

Have a great weekend!! .

This week our curriculum focused on brain building!!
