The solar system is a very popular topic within the classroom. The child is invited to work with the solar system activity where they can learn about planets, asteroids, comets, and other interesting facts about space. In this image, the child arranged the planets in order from their distance from the sun, and followed up with their own drawing of the solar system.

Children love to take part in festive celebrations. When placing ornaments on the tree, candles on the Menorah, and learning about Kwanzaa, children absorb their environment and foster an appreciation of various holidays. They are also working on their eye-hand coordination, fine motor development, and concentration. (Click for full photos!)

We enjoyed some refreshments and some time together. Thank you for your generous donations to the charity we supported this season, The Red Door Shelter.

This Autumn, we added new materials to some of our staple activities such as transferring with tongs/chopsticks, gluing on the x, and care of the environment. Children will often care for the environment by watering plants and washing plant leaves. This month, the children have an opportunity to wash and care for a pumpkin in preparation for Halloween.

We tasted three types of apples: Golden Delicious, Royal Gala, and Granny Smith. The children enjoyed sharing how the apples tasted using descriptive words such as sweet, sour, crunchy, and juicy. The children also compared the colours of each apple. Finally, each child placed their picture on a chart under their favourite apple. Royal Gala was the classroom favourite! (Please click for the full photos and how we extended our learning.)
