Older Pod Patio

The enrichment patio is an extension of our classrooms and it provides many of the benefits of the outdoor classroom. In the patio, we’re able to move our bodies, raise our voices, get messy and explore! Our friends in older pod have been hard at work, doing what they do best—PLAYING!

Check out some highlights of our play-based curriculum and your kiddos in action on the older pod patio!

One Week Down!

Last Wednesday was the start of a brand new school year! It has now been officially one week and we are enjoying getting to know all of the children in the classroom.

In the morning the friends are greeted by Ms. Sheri and Mr. Yorlin and they get to play in the classroom until about 8:30 when everyone takes a trip to the potty before hitting the yard.

We then transition out to the yard and we get to be on the whole yard in the morning!

Then when we go back inside we wash our hands and go to morning meeting where we sing fun songs and read books. The book this week is called Rosie Goes to Preschool; an appropriate one for the start of a school year.

We have been painting a lot during our free time. Inside we are exploring green and white and outside there is red, yellow and blue.

We love playing with play dough and building with blocks. There are so many activities in the classroom to explore and get involved in.

After nap we have another snack time and then we get to play in the yard again.

We love playing with the friends and the teachers! Hide and Seek is a popular game for the afternoon.

After our second time in the yard we come in our classroom and relax on the rug for a moment with a story before we get to play again until it’s time to go home. Another successful day complete.

We are so grateful for a new school year and a chance to be a part of each and every child’s growth and development. We look forward to year filled with exploration and adventure.

Welcome to a New School Year! 2021-22

We are so excited to meet our new students this week! We are praying for each and every family for a safe and healthy year! See you Wednesday!

Blessings from the Room 5 teachers!

The Last Day

The last day of summer came so quickly and while we thought we knew it was coming we weren’t emotionally ready to say goodbye.

We played outside and we had popsicles to celebrate a birthday! We all stayed close together on our last day. There were lots of hugs and love.

We watched Bluey and ate Pirates Booty and hugged the teachers sooo many times. We had our last morning meeting and did the final Donut Shop to snack.

We watched a little more Bluey in the afternoon. It’s everyone’s new favorite show!

Thank you all for a great summer and even though we didn’t get to go on field trips we still had so much fun with each other! We wish all of our students a fun and relaxing break and a fantastic start to the new school year! We love you all.

Week 7 & 8: Sailing Away. . .

The summer is drawing to a close and it feels like it went too quickly!! We tried to go out with a bang and make as many happy memories as we possibly could. Here are a few photos of those memories.

We had popsicles and Pirates Booty on Wednesday and Thursday of the last week! No complaints about either. 😁

The last Pump and Splash! We all got so wet. Apparently if you tell children they can throw water at you they will do so with gusto!

Slow slide is a big hit with Room 3 friends. I go down the slide as slowly as possible and they all go down with me. Such a silly game that they seem to love.

ALOHA SUMMER

What an amazing Summer we had, God is for ever good to all of mankind, his blessings and his love go near and far. We feel his presence everywhere. This summer we read

Summer Sails Away

The final week of our Fun in the Sun program has been a blast! We’ve been hard at work creating seashell art, pumpin’ and splashing, enjoying snow cones, singing fun VBS songs to the Lord, and of course, building friendships and memories that will last even after summer sails away! Check out some fun highlights from our final week together. We look forward to seeing you and your little ones in August for an exciting new school year!

SUMMER FUN SEVENTH WEEK

This week has been a loud week, hehehe! We took out different kids of instruments maracas, tambourines, guiros, bells and coffee cans to use as drums and of course the musicians. Oh, boy! They had a great time shaking, tapping and playing different tunes. The kids loved it.

The kids are always open and willing to try new stuff.

“LITTLE LEGGOS CAN BE ENTERTAINING AND SO MUCH FUN”

Snow cone, snow cone, I want a snow cone? I am telling you the kids loved Tuesdays.

Playing in the sand is always a favorite in our class too. They specially enjoy it when is wet and they can mold it or can creat different things such as cake, soup or a drink for their favorite teacher.

LAST WEEK OF SUMMER

We can’t believe we are saying goodbye to all of our Room 4 kids! It has been a blessing and such a great pleasure having all of them in our care. Most of our friends have been with us since August 2020, while some came to us just this summer. It is our hope and pray that God would continue to bless all of our families in their adventure over the next school year. We will especially be praying for all those families who will be traveling during our time apart. Thanks for a wonderful summer!

Our last Pop Up Verse for this week is: “Then I hear the Lord’s voice saying, ’whom should I send, and who will go for us? I said, “I’m here; send me.” Isaiah6:8

Wave Word: God sends

Music with Mr. Sam

This summer was filled with making music 🎶 and instruments! We made egg shakers, drums, güiros, water xylophones and dance streamers! Don’t forget, music ignites all areas of a child’s development! 😉
