Dear Nursery B Families,
Thank you all for a truly wonderful and supportive school year!
Looking back, Ms. Denise and I couldn’t be prouder of our little ones. Their growth—socially, emotionally, and academically—was nothing short of remarkable. They kept us on our toes, made us laugh every day, and continually amazed us with their unique personalities, accomplishments, and endless curiosity.
We wrapped up the school year with a week full of celebration and reflection. To our delight, the children remembered and shared memories of activities that even we had forgotten! Hearing what stood out to them was a touching reminder of how deeply they experience and internalize our days together.
Of the many highlights of the year, the children’s enthusiasm for our Letter of the Week activity was especially memorable. Each Tuesday brought wide-eyed excitement as the focus shifted to a new letter. With quick thinking and eager participation, they shared related words and sounds, and when an answer wasn’t quite right, they were always ready to try again. Their perseverance, boundless curiosity, and joyful energy made every activity a delight.
Their excitement carried over into our Bird Study unit as well. From observing birds in the park and playground to crafting detailed bird models, they approached every part of the project with infectious enthusiasm, eagerness, and a strong sense of ownership. Watching our three- and four-year-olds use a variety of formats to gather information and then share what they had learned was truly incredible—though we have never doubted their potential!
We learned many songs throughout the year, and we were often delighted when the children would spontaneously burst into song. One favorite was We All Sing With the Same Voice, which became an anthem of unity, kindness, and happiness in our classroom. Now it's your turn to join in the fun—we're spreading the love and joy these wonderful children have shared with us all year long!
And what a packed final week it was!
Changemaker Day was amazing! With signs in hand, we marched around the block and raised our voices in support of banned books.
We also squeezed in our Fairness Snack activity, which encouraged the children to advocate for themselves and think about fairness in everyday situations. Be sure to check out the video recordings!
As part of our service-learning project, we planted flowers, basil, and squash.
We visited both Pre-K classrooms and met the teachers, helping to ease the transition for our soon-to-be Pre-K students.
The children clapped out their fourth-grade buddies, and on Friday, we proudly cheered for our very own as they stepped into their new role as Pre-K students, followed by a well-deserved dance party in the yard and classroom!
We Celebrated Summer Birthdays!
Royce will be turning 4 years old in just a few days. Happy Birthday, Royce!
Louise and Theo will be turning 5 in August. Happy Birthday, Louise and Theo!
We are so proud of each and every one of our Nursery children. Thank you, families, for your kindness, trust, and partnership throughout the year. It has been a joy and privilege to watch your children learn, grow, and thrive.
We wish you all a joyful, restful, and sunny summer break filled with wonderful adventures and special family memories.
