Caterpillar job

Last week Ms.Cathy brought a jar with lot of little caterpillars. They climbed all the way to the top and started to hang from the ceiling. Yes they were under the chrysalis stage and built their cocoons, the Pupa. Ms. Cathy then changed the cocoons into a butterfly habitat. We would see butterflies hatching anytime next week. Isn't an amazing science project to demonstate Metamorphosis?

Also last friday, she got a lot of White carnation flowers in a flowerpot and we poured coloured water in it. Mine was an orange water. When we went to school the following week, we were surprised to see the flowers changed their colors. Ms.Cathy told that plants, leaves and flowers drink water too.

Field Trip

This was the first time that Blue Room children were taken to the Magnolia House for a field Trip. The Building was just located across the Jacob's Ladder and we walked to the building holding the Knots of a big log rope. What a March? We followed Ms.Cathy on the cross walk and Ms.Suzan welcomed us in the Magnolia House. We were asked to say 'Good Morning Ms.Susan' and she was very happy about it.

Ms.Susan was very friendly and showed us two nests that the birds have constructed in the building. She also demonstrated how the Mommy and Daddy birds build their nests before laying eggs. They carry straws and twigs and in no time they construct a house warm and cozy enough for the eggs to hatch. She also pretended to break eggs on our heads. We behaved at our best in the Magnolia house. She sang songs about birds, let us play with the frogs. She also sang a silly song about the frogs. It was such a fun.

Ms.Cathy appreciated us for our best behaviour in the field trip and we soon came back to our class room, washed hands, had lunch and had a nice long nap. I enjoy going to Field Visits. Just cant wait for the next trip to come.

Cars, Dogs and More

We had been there to our friend's home last weekend for a lunch, and Gita Aunty gave a tour of their home. When she openend the garage, I intantly told Amma 'Mama this is a Honda car and this is a Toyota'. She was astonished listening to me and asked Mom how come I could get know all these. Mom shared her secert with her.

At our home, No time is a waste time. Our parents try to make use of all the hours when I am awake. Spring is just around the corner n its pretty warm and sunny during evenings, and mom does her evening walking round the apartment after I am home from the school. She stops at the top model cars and teaches me the Car Brands. I do revision every other day whenever I get a chance to walk with her. I mastered about 10-12 brands of car in a week. Lexas, BMW and Benz are my favourite. Now I am going crazy with cars.

Pets are just as common in this country. Almost all of friends have a doggy with them and I wanted one too. Appa got me a pink fur doggy for me, for the valentine's day. My music teacher named him Pooky. When I went to the music class last week, We learnt a song on doggies and she asked us the names of our pets. When she asked me, I said 'Yes I have a pet' and showed my pooky to her. She placed him on the parachute and pooky had a nice parachute ride the other day. I read about doggies these days and could identify about 8 breeds. Besnji, Poodle and Maltese are my favourite. But when it comes to 'German Sheperd' I say 'Bid Red Clifford'.

Am I not a diamond in the rough? Mom thought she should introuduce letter sounds to me. She placed some of the two letter words (flash cards) on the table and asked me pick cards like 'is, it, an , as' etc, and I did it. I have a tinge of these sounds innate. Now I am working on sight words and started to read some already.

Ride with me on the Dinosaur train.

Dinosaur Train is one my favourite shows on PBS Kids. Every morning mama and I wake up early, have milk, have shower, dress up ourselves and sit before the TV at 8.30 to watch the show. My friends Buddy, Tiny, Shiny and Don explore about a dinosaur in the cretacious time period and at the end of the show a Paleontologist discusses about its features. Mama and I love the show. It ends at 9.00 and then I go to school. Would you like to ride with me on the Dinosaur Train? All Aboard!
