SPCNS Fun

Spring is quite a special part of the year, and this is no exception at Nursery School.  Over the past few weeks the children have been engaging in some amazing activities.  Want to take a look?

The Big Room (Mrs. Crossett's and Mrs. Vallejo's classes) and Mrs. Kozy's class have been learning all about volcanoes.  The children in the big room made volcanoes out of clay, while the children in Mrs. Kozy's class used styrofoam bowls which they meticulously decorated.  Once their volcanoes were ready, they used vinegar and baking soda to make them explode with lava.  Take a look at the eruptions in progress...













In the meantime, Mrs. Halls class learned about a newly discovered dinosaur with wings.  The children used clay to sculpt the body of their dinosaurs and meticulously decorated them with colorful feathers.  Take a peek...













 
Mrs. Gianakas' children spent some time showing off their toilet paper roll creations.  Take a look at their amazing creativity.





Mrs. Callaway's class focused on learning all about the letter "W".  They received a visit from Mrs. Berg and her warms.  The children helped her in building a warm composting bin with a bed of wet newspapers and some tasty treats of weeds and coffee grounds.
