We hope everyone had a restful labor day! This week we introduced many more Practical life works including tonging and our snapping and zipping dressing frames. These skills were further explored with our snapping, zipping, open/close, and twisting baskets. This will allow the child to become independent with their own self-care needs! In art, collage work was introduced using the torn paper from last week. We also began our sand affirmations which helps children recognize positive self-talk and builds confidence and self-esteem. The East classroom students added the brown prisms to their Sensorial shelf to explore thick and thin and the West classroom students introduced their globes and hemisphere map in geography.
