Thank you to all who came to our Back to School Night. I was so glad to see so many of our friends and their families. Here are a few snapshots from the evening.

We have started a new tradition in our classroom: sharing appreciation. At the end of the week, we sit down as a class and talk about friends we appreciate and why. Its a time of such laughter and joy. We display many of the appreciations around our room to remind ourselves to always look for something positive in our friends. It has become many of our favorite part of the week (myself included). I have to share some of our appreciations from Thursday.
I appreciate Christian because when its time for studio and explore and recess, he always plays with me and he makes nice cars. David
I appreciate the chickens. They always lay eggs for us. Aidan

The day was perfect! All day long, classes came and supported one another in preparing and planting the garden. We tilled, mixed soil, planted, mulched, and watered. We were so lucky the weather was spectacular, too. The kids seemed so happy and proud of their work. Such a wonderful day.

Tomorrow, all four classes will be planting in our three large garden boxes in the side yard of the school. We will be doing this rain or shine (providing no lightening or thunder). Please make sure your child is dressed in clothing that can get a little dirty! If you have gardening tools to share, make sure they are labeled with your name on them and send them with your child. We look forward to this very fun and dirty day!
