Hello Toddler Families,
We hope you had a good Pesach and enjoyed some extra time with your families! Can you believe that we only have a little more than a month left of school? The last few weeks of school are always lots of fun mixed with a little bit of chaos.
With springtime upon us, we’re excited about all the things that grow! You learned about our flower arranging work in our last peek and we want to share some other spring activities we have planned.
1. Our sensory bin is filled with brown beans, flowerpots, gardening tools and artificial flowers. The children have loved the sensory experience of the beans, working on pouring skills and arranging the flowers beautifully. It’s also a great way to practice picking up and sweeping as many beans end up on the floor!
2. We are looking forward to growing some beans in our windows. We will put the bean in a small zip lock bag with a wet paper towel and tape it to the window. The children will be able to observe the beans as they sprout and grow. (See picture below for example.)
3. We also will grow some grass. We have some containers that are going to be for Morah Sarah’s hamster, but first we get to watch it grow!
We are busy making last-minute touches and finishing up our art show pieces. We are so excited to share the things we’ve been working hard on all year. We hope you are able to attend on Thursday, May 1.
Finally, we look forward to having conferences with you on May 5 and May 6. We are ready to share all the ways that your children have grown and all the things they’ve learned in the toddler room this year. We are sad that most of our friends are moving on or moving up, but we know that they are ready and prepared for their next adventure.
Thank you endlessly for sharing your beautiful children with us. We are so GRATEFUL to be called their Morahs!
Warmly,
Morahs Megan, K and Sarah
