Weekly Update September 5 to 8

We have had another amazing week! Our learners are settled, comfortable, and happy! They were sad to end the day Friday, even they were so completely exhausted, so I am excited to start back with them tomorrow!

There were a lot of things happening in the hub this week, but a few main ideas seemed to come through as the students were interacting…

Building:
-airplanes, airports, zoos and spaceships

Animals-safety and belonging:
-making enclosures, safe homes, animal families, friend groups

Colors:
-the friendship of color, colors with a variety of different materials, how colors match each other

Ideas Jumping:
-from one person to another, from one material to another, from one space to another

The Joy of Exploring:
-the absolute fun of finding out new things with new materials with new friends!

I will send some of the documentation from these interests very soon.

REMINDERS

**A note about ice-cream. Aidah is still a little confused about which students should be allowed to have ice-cream on Fridays (some conflicting notes on lunch menus.)  Can you please either write a little note and put it in your child’s zippy pouch or send Aidah an e-mail at zuraidah@sas.edu.sg) In the note you can say something like
1)   My child can always have ice cream on Friday’s whether they have school lunch or home lunch
2)   My child can never have ice cream on Friday’s
3)   If my child has school lunch they can have it but not if they have home lunch

Then at least Aidah will know if we should use your child’s lunch card to buy them an ice cream or popsicle for a dollar.  Thank you so much for this!
