Ending this week...

I am so busy each day and each week. Then, I take a few minutes to compile photos of what we see throughout the day. It may seem unimportant, but the natural light within our school, the wholesome food, the simplicity of our curricular experiences, the belief each day that a raucous group of children need to have a peaceful mid-day meal complete with cloth napkins and real plates--this makes me get up each morning proud of what our team does!

Collecting colorful items in nature, adding water, and freezing to hang outside another day...a rainbow sun catcher!


"Ice skating" in the classroom with skates made of wax paper and rubber bands...





Having fun with the marble run...





Cooking with a friend after lunch...


Cleaning up after lunch...children need to have this expectation, even if we have to go behind them!



Every day, our Toddler/Twos class takes their job of feeding the cats very seriously!





Tabi with the children at morning community time...


Thanks, mom, for making beautiful flannel napkins for the children to use at lunch each day! It may save paper, but more importantly it honors the children with lessons in civility. A bonus? With our new washer/dryer, the napkins need to be washed, then folded by the children each day.






Don't think that a child won't like roasted cauliflower...it was the first thing she ate, and it would be fair to say she "tore" into it!


Little ones at the labyrinth!

















Cousins...


Beautiful. A little one helping a "littler" one put on her socks...we are a school family.
