Shelburne Farms

We had a great day at Shelburne Farms!  The weather was just perfect!  We went to the farm to work on a community building project: making pizza.  We split into four groups and each group was responsible for creating one part of the pizza: dough, sauce, cheese, or toppings.  The children then had to create an artistic piece to share about their part of the process with the other groups.  Some groups created poems and skits and others created songs and drawings.  Be sure to ask your child about his or her role in this pizza making process!  Here are a few pictures from the day!











A huge thank you to our "Nearby Nature" parent volunteers in both Esprit classrooms for a wonderful lesson about spiders this week.   Through this lesson we took a close look at web spinners and wandering spiders, examined their anatomy, and considered their special adaptations. We earned about their lives as small predators, and scouted outdoors for spiders and webs.
