After we introduced the Hummingbirds to the 5 senses on Monday we took a neighborhood walk to put them to use
We have some new writing/ tracing materials out on the writing table
The Hummingbirds have loved exploring our newest 5 senses works!
Gardening with Ms. Eman. This week we planted lettuce and swiss chard
Our first time in the backyard all winter! YAYYYY!
Work cycle
sensory balloons! Each balloon is filled with a different material and the Hummingbirds have to feel and match the balloon to the correct card
Music with Mr. Huw

This is a fun 5 senses game, the Hummingbirds are just starting to figure it out
Let's make SLIME!!!
Our Recipe:
Materials
- Elmer's glue (most kinds of white craft glue will work)
- 2 bowls
- Food coloring (you pick the color)
- Water
- Borax Powder (available at most large grocery stores near the laundry detergent)
- A spoon (for stirring)
- A tablespoon (for measuring)
Directions
- In one bowl mix 1/2 cup (4 oz) glue and 1/2 cup water. Add food coloring if you want colored slime.
- In the other bowl, mix 1 teaspoon borax with 1 cup water until the borax is dissolved.
- Add the glue mixture to the borax solution, stirring slowly.
- The slime will begin to form immediately; stir as much as you can, then dig in and knead it with your hands until it gets less sticky. (No one makes slime without getting a little messy!) Don't worry about any leftover water in the bowl; just pour it out.
