KDH and Ponce City Market

Each day is an adventure in KDH but some days are more .....

On Tuesday morning during center time the children took the straw manipulatives and connectors and erected a large building. We asked them, "What is this?" Jules replied, "It's the Ponce City Market." 

Watch how the building progressed!

It was a beautiful day outside. We asked the children, "Would you like to walk on the Beltline to the Ponce City Market?" We got a resounding response, "Yes!"

We lined up with partners and were on our way. We sang as we walked and enjoyed the gorgeous day.The children expressed a special interest in finding all the bridges on the walk. The first one that we walked under was renamed by KDH, "The Echo Bridge."

We noticed the bridge over Ponce de Leon. The one bridge that was a disappointment was the bridge to the Ponce City Market. It was closed for repairs. So after the long walk, we sat on what Amitai called, "the squiggly bench," to rest up before our walk back.

We only have these two pictures from the outing and wanted to create something about our outing. On Wednesday morning, the children drew the the bridges, flowers, trees, friends, the Ponce City Market with its many windows and flag on top and more....Next, we sat down and the children dictated to us what to write in the book.

Ms. Donna scanned the pictures and turned it into a book for us!

What excitement! 

The only way we could make it even better is by going inside the Ponce City Market.

Next time!!
