Where did September go?


After weeks of planning and preparing, the first few weeks of the new year have come and gone! When setting up the space, we keep it a bit simpler at the beginning, especially with so many new kids (8 in the last month). We will add more materials as they are introduced in the upcoming weeks.However our little ones seem to be moving along quite well and we are getting used to our new daily rhythms and curriculum centers. It appears that most of the group are quite capable of independent work. The children's individual activities have been balanced by group circle times highlighting our letter of the week and thematic concepts. Of course, outdoor play is a highlight for many! Here are some photos from the past few weeks. I hope that as things settle down I am able to blog a bit more and share the details of our projects and activities.
