Also worked on writing, […]

New works and fond farewells
We said goodbye to our good friend Renata this week on the same day that we celebrated her 4th birthday. Coincidentally we also said goodbye to our music teacher, Ms. Marcia, who is moving to New Orleans. We also enjoyed splash day, easel painting, and the spoils from our old school clean out efforts.

Around the World (05/30/17 to 06/02/17)
This week in Children’s House 2-1 we learned about the world and all the amazing countries that exists around the globe. Some of the projects the children completed were making their own crowns in honor of Europe and lanterns to represent Asia. We will be hanging the lanterns in the classroom so the children can […]

We jammed all week with musical instruments of all shapes and sizes. As a special surprise we also got to enjoy a fantastic musician thanks to Hunt’s awesome mom. He played an Irish Bouzouki and a Do Bro Guitar. Our art craft for the week was making drums. […]
