Super Cool School

This month we didn't have a theme for Super Cool School, so we've done a bunch of "one-shot deals". We started on Theodore Geisel's birthday with a Dr Seuss Party, complete with Green Eggs and Ham for lunch. Then we had a rainbow day, when we painted and strung and sang about and danced and even ATE rainbows. Then we had a "race car" day, with matchbox cars on a mini race track, counting and matching race cars for work time, and a big vroom vroom race in the back yard. We also built a race car out of chicken nuggets and carrot sticks for lunch. I was amazed at how many cognitive activities we could do with the matchbox cars, and excited about how much more attentive and engaged they were, even with challenging concepts.
