Today we hiked deep into the forest, trying to find bears! It was a "beary" good day at camp!
During morning choices, we explored animal tracks.
We saw many differences between the animals and the prints that their feet leave.
We also completed water color paintings inspired by nature.
B painted a snake that he had just seen!
Everyone brought their favorite teddy bear (bunny or dog) to camp today.
It was fun to meet each bear and find out how they are special.
We read the story of Goldilocks, then acted it out using puppets.
During centers, I noticed that C had made a sleeping bag for his bear.
S wanted one for her bear, but the extra one didn't fit her bear.
No problem, C was more than happy to teach S how he made the original sleeping bags.
We gave them bigger paper...
Which made for the perfect sized sleeping bag!
I also happened upon this bear wedding going on in the block center.
Can you see the steeple on the church? and the additional seating for the black bear- must have been a cousin from out-of-town! There was even a operational gate to keep the bears inside the church!
Campfire story time with Ms.Ashley.
Time for snack! We ate like bears today. We used pretzel stick fishing poles, dipped them in icing, and tried to catch fish from the "pond".
Time to sort the bears. First we sorted by size...
Then we sorted gummy bears by color. YUMM!
