The Weather

Math Counts: Ms. Carly put different cloud shapes on the carpet. Ms. Carly then asked the Cockatoos to look at the different clouds and describe what they looked like. She asked questions like do clouds come in different shapes and sizes? How big do you think a cloud is? The Cockatoos then tossed a bean bag on each cloud that was on the carpet. Children also enjoyed jumping and counting to each cloud. Finally, the Cockatoos danced on the clouds to “Spin Again” and “The Number Song.”
Sensory and Art: Cockatoos painted with sponges and loofahs today! Each child was given white paint and green paper to create their own work of art with a sponge or loofa. While painting, the children talked about how the paint felt and what different designs the sponges and loofas made on their papers. The Cockatoos really seemed to enjoy the textures of both the sponges and the loofas.
Outdoor Play: Cockatoos enjoyed playing with their Toucan friends out in the gazebo today! The Cockatoos had a blast racing around the gazebo in the cars and going down the slide.

Is that rough Nene, the mad driver?

I guess... and the one pushing the car is his friend Giovanni.

100%! Everytime I remember the "rough David" story, I can't help laughing. He's definitely Cool Nene though.
