Each Thursday, rather than taking turns leading yoga poses we already know, each student is given the opportunity to make up their own pose. We've noticed a theme recently- sometimes almost half of the poses are called "Balancing" (or some variation of such). We decided to explore the theme of balancing even further with these birds. We're excited to see what else we can balance the birds on, and how we can move while keeping the bird balanced.
How to Build A House
In dramatic play, the children are often moving the furniture around to create separate rooms or spaces for their play. We had these puzzle floor mats and offered them to the students at the end of last week. Each day, they use them to create something new. Sometimes, they are used to make a bed, sometimes a bedroom, or a doghouse, or even a tiny house for just two or three children.
