In February our students focused on Culture Awareness and Friendship. Each classroom recognized and created activities focused on these topics as well as introducing the children to some Black History. It was great to see the children understand that we all come from different cultures and backgrounds, but that we can all be friendly to each other. The children were very excited about our yearly Valentine’s Day parties. It was an excellent time to build on their friendships and remind one another of the value of love and kindness. The children were so happy to share their valentine’s treats with their friends and share good food. It was a great learning opportunity for the children to practice the value of giving and sharing.

Our enrichment program is an essential part of each day. The children were exposed to art, music, cooking, computers, and gardening daily. The children really love watering and eating lettuce from our garden. Some of this month’s activities also included Japanese art, music of Johannes Brahms, making friendship fruit salad, and focusing on math, language, and reading using the computers.

In March, our children will be studying Dinosaurs and Africa. They will be discussing animal habitats and what makes them unique. We look forward to celebrating Dr. Seuss’ birthday and his impact on early literacy. We will also celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with festivities and green materials! Our spring break will be from March 31 to April 4, 2025. Child-care will be provided during spring break, but it will be a different cost, with all funds going directly to the teachers. Re-enrollment packets are also due on March 17th. Emails will be sent with a registration form, and reminders will be sent accordingly.

We look forward to another creative month!
