Dear Joyful Beginnings Bluebirds Families,
Thank you so much for attending our Curriculum Night. We very much enjoyed seeing all who were able to join us and sharing about our class.
Our lovely Bluebirds fluttered through a delightful week. They enjoyed playing in this crisp and pleasant weather. In the forest, the children loved to run and play hide and seek with each other. Cooking in the mud kitchen is one of their favorite games. Digging, stirring, and carrying a pot of “soup” all strengthen the children’s sense of movement. The children served their friends both tea and delicious food they had prepared while seated at the small picnic table. Observing the children becoming closer to one another was a beautiful sight.
Taking a nature walk down to the farm was a highlight of the week. While navigating through the forest, the children were amazed to see the leaves float through the air and hear them sing when the wind picked up speed. Before we arrived at the farm, we could hear the goats and donkeys greeting us. They all gathered at the gate when the children offered them kudzu and fresh fruits. The children gently fed our furry friends and petted them with care.
Our Bluebirds will take individual pictures this Wednesday and Thursday. If your children are in the five-day program, they can have their pictures taken on either day. This week, the children will collect sturdy sticks to make their star wands. Additionally, as a class, we will prepare two gratitude cards for the veterans. The children will collect colorful leaves and glue them on watercolor paintings as a way of saying thank you for their service.
Announcements and Reminders for Bluebirds:
9/19: Paxton’s birthday celebration.
9/20: Josef’s birthday celebration.
Thank you for bringing vegetables and fruits each week. Please continue to bring them for your children to chop. When we have special occasions that do not require a vegetable or fruit for the week, we will let you know in advance.
When there is a school-wide early dismissal, JB’s pick-up time will be from 12:00-12:15 p.m.
Thank you for sharing your lovely children with us, and thank you for your support.
Warmly,
Ki Siyu and Ki Cecilia
