Feeling Like Spring in Enrichment!

Hi everyone!

We had a great first week back from vacation! Though the temperatures haven't been cooperating, it really is Spring, and we've been enjoying our time outside by learning some new games! Ask your child about Duck, Duck, Goose, and Red light, Green light!

The kids have really enjoyed welcoming Sensei Michael back into our classroom! We're learning some new moves to make our bodies strong, and practicing respect and self control to make our minds strong.

This week we read BIG BOOKS!! For Earth Day we read Kids For The Earth by Melvin Berger, and today we read A Butterfly Is Born by Melvin Berger (he writes a lot of really good non fiction books for this age group). We read the butterfly book because... we welcomed 5 caterpillars into our classroom this week! We get to watch them change and grow until they become butterflies, when we'll release them outside.

Our new centers this week were...

Art- The children made their own Name Garden! They wrote individual letters of their name
