Welcome to Buds Academy!

Happy Tuesday everyone!

We started the day by playing with the bristle blocks, H really liked feeling the texture of the blocks, L thought it looked like the rollers you see in car washes and used the blocks to make his own car wash and wash all the toy cars. D and Isa found this idea very amusing and did the same as L. T really liked playing with bristle blocks too but he used them to make a tower and N helped him.

On the second activity table we played with puzzles. As we worked on colors yesterday during our firefighters activity with fire being red and water being blue, we played with puzzles based on colors today to identify more colors. I played with this activity for a very long time and so did M.

In the free play area we played with cars and planes. N and D raced cars while N and H played with the helicopters.

During circle time we started a new subject, that of police officers! To start we made our own police badges! It was very fun! We glued shiny papers to our paper cut badges to make them as shiny as those of the police officers we see every day on the street when we go to the park and then we used the markers to decorate them. Then Brandon read us “Police officers on the go” by Alyse Sweeney where we learned a lot about badges, patrol cars, fingerprints, walkie talkies and police officers of course!

Then we put what we learned into practice and became police officers on a mission to stop speeding! Brandon started running around the classroom and we had to stop him because we all know, in buds class we have to use walking feet! L showed everyone how to position themselves and make STOP with their hands before shouting FREEZE to stop the speeder!

Then L became the speeder and after an intense chase, was arrested by Inspector T! We then all took turns becoming the speeder and it was very funny to be stopped by the inspectors! Good job buds friends, you are all very promising inspectors! We are excited to see what lesson we will learn tomorrow during circle time at the Buds academy!

After our snack we went to play at the temple near the school and then it was already time for us to go back to school and eat our lunch!

Thank you for today everyone! Have a wonderful afternoon and see you all tomorrow!

Love,

Buds
