This week has been filled with connection, creativity, and meaningful moments together. It was especially lovely to welcome families into our community for our very first all-school sing of 2026. Seeing familiar faces gathered together to share music set such a joyful tone for the days ahead.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve also been discussing our loft space, which officially opened this week. The children were thrilled to explore it, and it has already become a favorite spot for imaginative play—especially puppet shows, where stories and friendships flourish.
In small group work, we focused on early literacy skills by practicing curves and lines, with special attention to the letter “M.” The children approached this work with care and concentration, building confidence as they explored letter shapes.
Our book this week, The Color Monster, opened up thoughtful conversations about feelings. Together, we explored what happiness, anger, fear, sadness, calm, and love can look and feel like. The children expressed these emotions through beautiful feelings collages, which are now displayed in our classroom as a reflection of their ideas.
We hope everyone enjoys a restful holiday weekend. See you all on Tuesday!
