hauling mulch to make a floor for our really muddy Canteen Tent
grinding wheat berries to make flour
a flour sensory bin with diggers!
unrolling my first attempt at bundle dyeing!
I took a fantastic workshop with Anne-Marie Kavulla
we are excited about doing dyeing projects this year
the children swiftly adapt to working outside
mixing up a delicious meal in the mud kitchen
a Nature walk to find different kinds of evergreen leaves
looking for patterns in the multiplication tables
handwork bags... ready for new projects!
waiting on daffodils
setting out yarn scraps for the birds to use in nest building
a challenge...
a painting in rosy pink... the color of sunrise and of new growth
a Nature walk to look for rosy pink
even leaves are rosy pink when they are new!
our rabbit Chia sheds her warm winter coat,
so we put some rabbit fur out for the birds too
tying beautiful Nature items to trees
and to bushes
what a fun way to practice tying knots!
the worms have settled in happily to our composting bin
helping a younger friend
checking work against the "answer key"
called a "control of error" in Montessori
Infinity Street... outdoor version!
I realize that we can just write on the sidewalk with chalk
making maps for the North American Geography binders
adding Fearless Women in U.S. History to the new MLBs
a new lesson on the Pythagoras Board
complete! checking work with the control chart
making String Art Balloons to hold wool for the nesting birds
thank you to Ms. Flossie for helping with this!
in more fun with starch,
playing with biodegradable packing peanuts in the mud kitchen
choosing wool yarn colors for Star Gnomes, our first knitting project
one of the benefits of a day outside
it makes you tired!
individual reading assingments for group sharing
initial Polar Biome brainstorm
creating a tunnel/ramp for toy cars
using an extra-long cardboard tube and a stump
a picnic lunch
these are excellent for research!
fort building on the mulch mountain
helping younger friends match all the male and female birds
listen carefully... our boxwood is making a dripping sound!
turns out to be Boxwood Leafminer which is not good news
considering possible skin tone colors for our knitted gnomes
time to do some dyeing!
wrapping yarns in hanks for dyeing
we decide to try tea, coffee, and avocado
carefully making tiny worlds for dinosaurs
playing a game of Pacific Foods Bingo as we move into a study of Hawai'i
the tropical forest biome is quite different from the polar!
