Hydro Play Day!!

Here at AoCS, we love our hydro play days (aka water day)!  From toddlers to Pre-K are always so excited on Friday morning to start water day!  We love hearing them chant "water day, water day".  See how much fun we had today!

Mixed Media Art

This week is all about the power of creating!  The students have really enjoyed being artists all week long.  Today we had a special visitor, Ms. Robin, come and provide us with a mixed media art project.  Ms. Robin is the owner of Starry Night Studio.  She is also Ms. Danie's mom!

They used manila folders and LOTS of collage materials to make summer popsicles.  The best part was that two classes got to make this project together.  The kids thought it was so cool to push the tables together and create with their school family.  What a treat!  Check out the pictures below:

And for more information on Ms. Robin's studio please visit www.thestarrynightstudio.com

 Ms. Robin explaining what mixed media art is.

 Let the artwork begin!

 It's so fun creating with different materials.

 The students listened carefully to all instructions.

 Artwork with your school family is the best!

 Look at all this amazing art!

Ms. Robin gave lots of hands-on help but also let the children use their own imaginations.

Thank you for visiting us, Ms. Robin!  You are welcome back any time!

Happy Father's Day

We hope all of our amazing dads had a wonderful Father's Day.  This morning we celebrated our dads with Donuts!  Who doesn't need a donut to kick off their week?  We also have a cute grab-and-go station this afternoon for any dads that weren't able to make it this morning.  Happy Father's Day from AoCS!

The Power of Our Senses with Professor Graybeard

This week we are studying the power of our senses! We had a special visit from Professor Graybeard to teach us all about senses through fun science experiments.  He showed us how dry ice reacts with water and how the carbon dioxide coming off of the reaction feels fizzy on your tongue, like when you drink a carbonated drink.  He also showed us how we can use our energy through touch to make a lightbulb light up by touching it with our own hands.  It was a day full of fun, learning, and excitement!

Water Day!

Our first water play day is in the books.  Water slide, water tubs, water tables, water walls, and more!  The kids had a BLAST and all slept soundly during nap time.
