Green Pod's School House Rock

The School House Rock Program was absolutely wonderful!  The children worked so hard to put on a magnificent show for us!  I am so proud of our "balance beamers!"  Thanks for your support!






















Crazy Hair/Cow Day

Last week the Mobile Dairy from Auburn University came to visit!  We learned a lot about Petunia the cow and how she makes milk!  We even got to see her make milk live!  It was pretty cool!  We learned some pretty interesting facts about milk and what it involves!
  It was also our Crazy Hair Day in our ABC Days of Kindergarten!  











Sea Horse Part III

Better late than never!  Sorry for the long time between posts!  Here are the rest of our pictures of the color crew and habitat crew!  Sadly we did not get any pictures of our water crew at work because they had to add their water once we relocated the sea horse to the gallery area.  I will try to get a picture of the girls next to their masterpiece and post soon.  We hope you enjoy seeing our final product if you haven't already!  We look forward to sharing this with you in person on our
Exhibition Day coming soon on May 11th!  















Sorry I couldn't get the picture to turn...you know me and technology! :)  Thanks for your patience!  








Mrs. Gilmore's Veterinarians

Over the past few weeks I had noticed that our Dramatic Play Center was missing visitors during our center time.  I mentioned this to the children and asked for their help in brainstorming some ideas to help make it more inviting and interesting!  We made a list of possible topics for our center.  The children suggested an ice cream shop, vet's office, school, and post office.  After our vote the vet's office won!  We cleaned out the center's restaurant materials to make room for the items we would use and need for the vet office.  We discussed some items to include and decided to send an email to families to ask for help!  We are SO thankful for all of your help and support!  We now have a wonderful variety of animals to care for and materials to use!  Thank you for your participation!  We have had some very busy nurses and doctors working to heal the animals!  We hope you enjoy some of the pictures we have snapped so far...

Sam, Jiwon, Emma, and Holland of the Color Crew are trying to decide which color to paint our sea horse.

Sam and Jiwon thinking..."Hmmm...which color should we choose?"


The Color Crew could not agree on one color so they decided to paint one side orange with red spots and the other side pink with dark pink spots.  Sam, Jiwon, Emma, and Holland talked about why it would work to do two colors...sea horses can change colors to match their environment to protect themselves from predators.  We thought this was a valid reason to paint the sea horse two colors! 

"Me and Jiwon getting started on the orange paint before we used red for the red spots." Sam

More pictures coming soon!
