Monday, May 11th

The students are being provided with situations saturated in light and shadows.  Much of the play seen in these situations involves the Big Bad Wolf and Three Pigs, building upon the imaginary play the group seems to be enjoying.  Also seen in these moments, are times when a student seems to be questioning something on a scientific level, like when wondering why the actual paper used to make the shadow of a house is much smaller when brought directly to the wall.

We also took a long look at our newly hatched butterflies!
