Memories in the Making

Today Ms. Hannah's preschool two class made tied dye shirts! They had fun and loved mixing the colors! Now they have a great keepsake and fun shirt to wear. 

Perfect Weather!

The weather outside has been amazing!!  From sliding down the slides to bike riding, hiding under a castle and poking our head out of the windows... we have loved every minute of it!! We hope everyone enjoys the lower temperatures and has a fantastic weekend!!! 

Silly Faces

Preschool One was learning all about Faces this week with our Frog Street Press Curriculum. They worked on their social/emotional development by recognizing each other's silly faces. This skill helps our students develop and demonstrate a positive sense of self and competence, and helps each child engage in positive interactions with each other and develope relationships with his or her teachers. Check out these silly faces of Preschool One!

Camp Academy

We have had so much fun this week exploring and learning all about camping! We tried some yummy s’mores trail mix, painted with marshmallows, went on a bear hunt and used our imagination with pretend fires and campsites.

All About the Arts

Welcome to the Academy of Cool Springs Art Gallery! We have been all about the arts this week. Our halls were filled with the sound of music with our classrooms homemade musical instruments. The classrooms turned fruit into art, the kids made citrus paintings and we sent home a sounds walk scavenger hunt so that our families could venture out together. We enjoyed stories about music and art and we loved our classroom art galleries!! Our infants made rainbow bubble art, our toddlers made the cutest fuzzy brown bear paper plate painting. Preschool one made salt paintings. Our preschool two room used balloons and paint to make art. Our pre-k one class blew bubbles to make art and pre-k two made tape art on their homemade easels. We loved seeing all the creative ways our school celebrated all about the arts week.

Mad Scientists

 Mad Scientists Week 

This week has been all about science. We turned lemons into volcanoes, we explored static electricity with our plasma ball, our families sent in some really cool robots for our robot building contest. Mr. Bond visited and the kids had a blast. We also had some mad scientist punch, complete with pop rocks candy. We explored the sensory side of things with shaving cream and we were able to see our very own AoCS scientist all dressed up in their lab coats and goggles. We hope you enjoy the pictures!
