THE FOUR PILLARS OF WELL-BEING-
PRACTICING MINDFULNESS, KINDNESS, AND GRATITUDE IN OUR COMMUNITY
THIS WEEK, WE CONTINUED OUR EXPLORATION OF THE COMMUNITY PILLAR. THE YELLOW ROOMERS CITED "HELPING" AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF ANY COMMUNITY. WE IDENTIFIED THE PEOPLE IN OUR TCS COMMUNITY, THEIR ROLES, AND HOW EACH PERSON'S CONTRIBUTION TO OUR COMMUNITY IS SO IMPORTANT. WE LIKENED A COMMUNITY TO A PUZZLE WHERE EACH PIECE IS IMPORTANT AND CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER TO COMPLETE THE OVERALL PICTURE!
P.E. WITH COACH JEREMY
THIS WEEK IN P.E. CLASS, COACH JEREMY INTRODUCED THE CHILDREN TO THE GAME, THE FLOOR IS LAVA. HE CONSTRUCTED AN ELABORATE OBSTACLE COURSE TESTING THE CHILDREN'S BALANCE AND AGILITY AS THEY TRAVELED FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER. FRIENDS CAREFULLY TRAVERSED THE COURSE WHILE MAKING SURE NOT TO STEP ON THE LAVA, SYMBOLIZED BY THE GRASS. THE YELLOW ROOMERS THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THE CHALLENGE!
ON FRIDAY, COACH JEREMY SHARED AN ACTIVITY WHICH FOCUSED ON JUMPING! FRIENDS WERE CHALLENGED TO JUMP IN AND OUT OF HOOPS USING ONE OR BOTH OF THEIR FEET. AFTERWARDS, THEY FASHIONED ALL OF THE HOOPS TOGETHER TO CREATE A TRAIN!
BOOKS WE READ THIS WEEK
INDOOR LEARNING AND PLAY CENTERS
THE YELLOW ROOMERS CONTINUE TO PRACTICE THEIR WRITING AND LETTER RECOGNITION. THIS WEEK, OUR FRIENDS WORKED DILIGENTLY IN THEIR WORKBOOKS. IN ADDITION, THEY PRACTICED WRITING THEIR NAME ON SENTENCE STRIPS AND EMBRACED OUR LETTER OF THE WEEK, "J."
THE YELLOW ROOMERS ALSO UTILIZED COLORFUL OIL PASTELS AS THEY CREATED COVER PAGES FOR PERSONAL JOURNALS THEY WILL KEEP ADDING TO OVER THE COURSE OF THIS YEAR. ON THURSDAY, THE CHILDREN MADE THEIR FIRST JOURNAL ENTRIES!
GUEST READER- RYAN MCLAUGHLIN
ON FRIDAY, JAXSON'S DADDY, RYAN, SHARED TWO LOVELY BOOKS HAND-PICKED BY JAXSON. THE YELLOW ROOMERS ENJOYED LISTENING TO THE STORY OF THE RAINBOW FISH BY MARCUS PFISTER, AND I WISH YOU MORE BY AMY KROUSE ROSENTHAL. THANKS RYAN!!
THE YELLOW ROOMERS CONTINUE TO ENJOY THEIR OUTDOOR PLAY TIME AS THEY COOPERATIVELY PARTICIPATE IN A MYRIAD OF DRAMATIC PLAY SCENARIOS, TEST THEIR GROSS MOTOR SKILLS ON THE PLAY EQUIPMENT, AND BIKES, OR SIMPLY DIG IN THE SANDBOX WITH THEIR FRIENDS!
OUTDOOR PLAY
STORY STONES
HAVING CAREFULLY SELECTED THEIR STONES LAST WEEK, IT WAS NOW TIME TO PAINT THEM. FOR INSPIRATION, THE CHILDREN WERE GIVEN PICTURES OF ITEMS FOUND IN NATURE, SUCH AS THE SUN, MOON, GRASS, AND TREES.
EACH CHILD CHOSE AN ITEM FROM THESE NATURE PICTURES AND USED ACRYLIC MARKERS TO DRAW IT ON THEIR STONE.
THE YELLOW ROOMERS WERE EXCITED TO CREATE A STORY AS PART OF A CLASS LANGUAGE ARTS PROJECT.
MUSIC CLASS WITH TEACHER LAUREN
THE YELLOW ROOMERS ENJOYED PRACTICING THEIR TWO SONGS FOR THE WINTER SING...FROSTY THE SNOWMAN AND THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE,
THEY ALSO DANCED TO THE UPBEAT TUNE, GET BACK UP AGAIN, FROM THE TROLLS' MOVIE SOUNDTRACK, WHILE SHAKING THEIR EGG SHAKERS!
