Today we read a book called It's Okay to Make Mistakes by Todd Parr.  We also got to hear Roots from our special guest Miss Ashley from the MU Health Extension.  She brought plastic vegetables that are picked from the ground and had each child wash one so they know what to do with a vegetable that has "roots".  Afterwards, they got to go spray their radish plants and check on their growth.  Next, we did an activity for math, cognition and fine motor skills making fountain firework pictures with paint and cut toilet paper rolls.  At last, we had a special sensory and science activity where we all went to the parking lot and watched Miss Adrienne make a "firework" with a 2 liter bottle of Coca-Cola and a Mentos.  Once the Mentos was dropped in, the Coca-Cola exploded out of the bottle and straight up into the air!  This was a fun experiment for all of us!
