We kicked E Week off with a bit of a “field trip” to the Blue Line Airport T station! Just a short walk through the Bremen St. Park and we eagerly arrived at our destination with 2 goals in mind: the elevator and the escalator! We got some adorable photos of the kids’ excited faces as we rode up and down both e-named devices, but the camera is not cooperating for uploads today. The elevator seemed like a magic trick as we entered through a set of doors, then exited the same set of doors to a completely different space! From the second-floor mezzanine, the children enjoyed watching the trains come and go and waving to the passengers. I may be biased, but I do think we brightened quite a few grumpy faces this morning! The escalator was a great coordination and gross motor activity, as the children had to carefully time their steps on and off of the escalator. With Kristy as our parent teacher today, we had plenty of hands to help our friends who needed the extra support.
We are looking forward to working on our thankful turkey this week, as well as some of the usual alphabet projects. We’ve got some new E-activities up our sleeves as well as an E-themed snack! Stay tuned!
