"What happens if I. . . ?"   We'll be doing lots of experiments this session - working with magnets, floating and sinking, mixing potions, exploring our five senses and learning about some of the organs in our bodies.  You never know what we might try - but the results are guaranteed to be fun!

These weeks will also be devoted to cooking our own tasty food!  We'll taste and work with a variety of ingredients and cook something new each day.  We'll also talk about where food comes from and set up a mini market in our classroom for our friends to shop.  This session will culminate in us preparing a family lunch - everyone is invited!  Yum!

The children will create their own heroes and write or dictate a comic strip to tell their hero's story.  Art, literature, costume design and interactive play come together in this session's theme.  The children will make capes and masks and describe the qualities and characteristics of their heroes.  We'll also talk about our real life heroes that we admire. 

What might you see if you went to the beach?  What lives in the water?  What fish live in Lake Washington?  What about on the shore?  What are the characteristics of sharks, dolphins, and whales?  What can we learn about an Orca whale?  This session, we will be exploring all those ideas and more, as we set our sights on the ocean and the beach and all that happens there.

Calling all paleontologists!  This session we'll learn all about different types of dinosaurs - their names, what they looked like, what they ate, and where and when  they lived.  We'll go on an egg hunt, make an exploding volcano, have a visit from the reptile lady, and even have our own dig.  If your child loves dinosaurs, you won't want to miss this session!

Once upon a time in a far off land. . .   Stories will be our focus this session, as we read, write, and act out a variety of fairy and folk tales including royalty, friendly knights, and fairies!  We will really use our imaginations this session, as we create and illustrate our stories, make masks and wings, and dress up.  This session will culminate in a performance of one of our stories, complete with costumes, props and a handmade set!
