Joyful Beginnings: March 18 - 22, 2024

Dear Joyful Beginnings Families,

What a wonderful week we had in the classroom. Lady Spring has finally arrived, and we are looking forward to more pleasant weather. We heard birds chirping in the forest and saw gorgeous butterflies moving around. New leaves are emerging from tree branches, infusing life into nature. It was a joy to watch the children playing peacefully in the forest. 

To welcome Lady Spring, children made spring paintings with their fingers. Each student was provided with three primary colors: red, yellow, and blue. They enjoyed using their sense of touch to experience the fluidity of colors and discovering new colors by combining them. We visited the animals later in the week. Every time we walked by the farm, the donkeys were so excited to see us. Some friends told us that they loved when the donkeys made the “hee-haw” sound. 

We will have school photos this week. Please dress your children accordingly and bring a change of clothes if you would like to keep the photo outfit clean and tidy. Grandfriends Day will be on Friday. We are looking forward to this gathering. The event will take place on Friday from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in our forest classroom.

Our auction project has been going quite well. Thank you for taking the time and effort to ensure the success of our auction. We appreciate your contribution and support.
