It was beach day today!! We read the book Duck and Goose Go to the Beach, did beach themed activities and crafts, played beach themed math and literacy games AND made beaches in a cup!! Making summer learning fun and tasty in room 101!! 🏖 ☀️ #mineolagrows

Beach themed math centers and popsicle stick crafts! During todays math centers, we worked on counting, number recognition, adding, and cooperative play in these beach themed math centers! We also made popsicle stick crafts by tearing paper and sorting colors! #mineolaesy

Ice cream day for our last themed day of the summer! Today we read the book “Should I Share My Ice Cream?” and completed a sequencing activity based on the story! We had ice cream themed math centers and made ice cream puffy paint cones! Of course we ended with ice cream sundaes!

#Mineolaproud of the work done by the staff at the summer program. The learners spent 6 weeks strengthening their academic and daily living skills and concluded with a sun drenched and fun BBQ. Catherine Fishman Margaret Ballantyne🇺🇸

We had so much fun on Friday “selling” free lemonade during #mineolaesy! Now we can wait to use our tips for an ice cream party! I think this is going to become a yearly tradition!

We’re getting ready for our ice cream party! Today we read a book about ice cream and the importance of sharing and made our own puffy paint! It was such a fun (but messy) craft and the learners LOVED it! #mineolaesy

As part of our ocean unit #mineolaesy learners listened to the story Mister Seahorse and made seahorses using shaving cream! We of course had to play in it after for a fun sensory time!
