The Preschool Prep class has been learning a lot and having a blast while doing so! The students were able to make alphabet soup and fish out one letter at a time with a ladle.  They were asked to identify the letter and the sound it makes!

For some fine motor and hand strength practice, they were able to use tongs to transfer white marshmallows into muffin tins! We were able to eat a few fresh ones afterwards 🙂

We also were able to explore our sense of sound! The children took turns shaking the mystery eggs and “predicting” what might be inside. Some of them came as a surprise to us!

The K Prep class has been learning about sound this month…vibrations, pitch, and sound waves to name a few.

-The students learned that sounds are made from vibrations.  They were able to see how this works first hand!  We put plastic wrap on a glass bowl and added some sugar crystals on top.  We found that if we talked very closely to the sugar, it would start moving!

-To explore high and low pitch, we made our own songs using water glasses. We even wrote our own music and each played our song to the class!

-We made our own telephones to show how sound waves work!
