Joyful Beginnings Bluebirds: September 16 - 20, 2024

Dear Joyful Beginnings Bluebirds Families, 

Welcome back to school! We are happy to see everyone coming back well rested. Before fall break, we celebrated the Day of Courage by making star wands. The children painted stars, picked out sticks in the forest, and laced beads on pipe cleaners to decorate the wands. Each one of our little Bluebirds worked patiently and was excited to play with their magical star wands in the forest. The story Young George and the Baby Dragon was well loved among the children. We will continue to tell this story as a way to recognize each child's inner strength. Additionally, we celebrated Josef and Paxton’s birthday in the classroom. We were grateful to spend these meaningful moments with Josef and Paxton’s family. Thank you so much for sharing delicious birthday treats with us!

This week, we will begin by painting with watercolors. The students will use fall colors to express their creativity. Before fall break, we began a new circle song called "Oats, Peas, Beans, and Barley Grow," which we will continue to sing this week. Fall conferences are just around the corner. It is an excellent time for us to discuss your children's growth. Thank you for signing up. I am looking forward to meeting with you.
