Weekly Updates and Reminders April 28

Just a reminder that there is no school on Monday!  We will see the students back at school on Tuesday, May 2nd. Also next Friday, May 5th from 8 to 9:15 am is our Celebration of Learning! The students are excited to share their year with you! We will start with a slideshow of the year, the students will share their learning journey books with you, and you will be invited to do a couple of activities with your child and share a snack with them. We look forward to seeing you there!

Our explorations this week seemed to focus on cooperation, reflection and creating! Our students really began talking about what they love about Pre K and there was a lot of drawing and writing to represent their thoughts. The students continued to use recycled materials and loose parts to create different things, from another plane, to a house, to necklaces, to mirrors, to space ships! I took a new light box out from it’s Styrofoam container, and I was immediately surrounded by our inquisitive creators… “Do you need that anymore Ms. Lynsey? We could really use that…” The students haven’t decided what they are making, but the amazing critical thinking and problem solving that I witnessed as they worked could have rivaled a middle school class!

We ended the day today with Star Wars yoga! I hope you all have a wonderful long weekend!
