Winter at Montessori

We were all happy to be back today at school.  Especially Mom and Dad, while the two weeks were fun I think we were all ready to get back into our routine.

Much of the new work Michael is working on goes well with the current weather.

There are Artic animals, make your own snow, penguins, and many more fun things out to work on. The children are are also working on "calling" their home phone numbers and our friends numbers.

Dinos in the snow!

The kids also made it outside and worked hard to get through the snow each Wednesday to go sledding. The children enjoyed the snow - sledding, at times, difficult because deep light snow not packed down. Afterwards the kids enjoyed a snack and hot chocolate, what could be better than that.

Ahhh to be 3 if only for a day!

The month of February is off to a good start. The children made our lanterns for Chinese New Year along with ground hogs to start the month. The kids had many exciting works out this month.  They will learn about their body and how to keep them healthy.  Brushing teeth is one of the favorite
works, along with playing in the shaving cream. The kids have also been building towers and log
cabins.

Look at those HUGE teeth!

The kids are also preparing for Valentines Day, and are excited that the 100th day of
school is almost here. More to come soon on this! Montessori for life!
