DWM! Playgroup Session on May 6, 2010! Lots of Animal Fun!

tons of fun was had at yesterday's DWM! playgroup. we played, listened to a story about by eric carle, climbed up a slide (mountain) then slid down the slide, crawled through a "bear" tunnel & under a "waterfall," learnd ASL for the words pand, more, and again; sang songs to develop phonemic awareness as well as paying attention skills, made a "monkey dance" on a parachute as we tossed it up slowly and fast, caught bubbles as they floated down like leaves from the trees giraffes eat from, discovered endangered animals with the story panda bear, panda bear by eric carle, and finally discovered how to make binoculars using recycled items....lots of discovery learning!

also, want to thank ms. jennifer for leading last week's playgroup while i was out of town.  she is a rising star! ms. jennifer is studying to be a teacher and is a mommy to one of DWM!'s explorers!
