Stringy ThingsOctober 14-18, 2013
The developmental objective for this week was to explore varieties and textures of stringy objects in the
environment and to learn different ways to manipulate and apply them.
Discovery TableOoblick was put in the discovery table for the
children to explore. The first three days different tools were put in the table for the children to
manipulate the ooblick. On Thursday string and ribbon pieces were added into the ooblick for the children to feel the different textures. On Friday a pumpkin was displayed inside the table with an
opening for the children to see the stringy insides of the pumpkin. The insides, along with the
seeds, were also in the table for the children to feel and play with.

Circle TimeFor circle time the children learned a different welcome song called “Hello, How Are You?” A string phone was
incorporated into the song that they took turns listening and replying into. The children also learned the songs “Hey Diddle Diddle” and “Five Little Pumpkins.” On the felt board were five pumpkin shapes for the children to take off and put back on while singing “The Five Little
Pumpkins.” Sam (37 mos.),Matthieu (32 mos.) Marlowe (30

ArtFor art this week the children were able to
incorporate string in many different aspects. On Monday they were able to paint on paper using tools made out of string. On Tuesday sculptures were created using glue and different materials
such as string and ribbon. Wednesday consisted of painting strands of rope. Birds nests were
made on Thursday using objects they brought in from home, feathers, pinecones, and bird nest
strands. On Friday the children were able to work together to paint one large box that was wrapped
in string.Matthieu (32 mos.) Sam (37 mos.) Maggie (24

Gross MotorStrands of rope were hung throughout the classroom
resembling a spider web. The purpose of this was for the children to manipulate their bodies around the rope. Each
day two new strands were added to the web for the children to crawl under, go through, and climb over. The children were to go through their normal schedule and activities, but they had to think through it differently in
order to work around the rope. Reese (31 mos.) Rada (36 mos.) Marlowe (30 mos.)

Science and Math
Infant Activity
For the science and math activity the children were given different stringy foods to try. After everyone tasted the
food they were able to document which foods they liked and did not like. They also were able to compare which
classmates preferred certain foods and which foods they didn’t care for. On Monday the children were given angel hair pasta, on Wednesday cole slaw was given, and on
Friday they were given spaghetti squash to taste. Karson (18 mos.) Sam (37 mos.) Matthieu (32 mos.)

The infant activity this week was designed for the infants to pull different sizes and textures of ribbon and string through the top of a box. Each day a new strand with a different texture and color was put inside the box for
them to experiment with. The box was also covered in different types of string and ribbon for them to feel and
look at.Leo (13 mos.)
