pre - k friend. He has done a phenomenal job helping the new friends get acquainted to Montessori. I keep hearing Barbara Streisand in my head signing I'm five, I'm five I'm a big girl now I'm five! Your not five yet Michael don't want to grow up too fast! Sit back and enjoy it!
Michael has also starting playing soccer, while its only the beginning I'm glad to see that he is showing interest in a team sport. They aren't playing games yet ( I mean they are only four) he is enjoying it and continues to ask me to practice kicking the ball with him in the living room, for now that's an ok place!
I'm looking forward to chaperoning a field trip in early October and volunteering to read to the kids a couple times throughout the year. (more posts to come on those adventures in the future!)
One note, thanks to my job for being so flexible so that I can participate in more than just work and home life. Thanks to my family for supporting us to get to Arlington Heights so we can have these great experiences with the kids and not have to be in the car all the time! Being close is SO FANTASTIC!
In practical life the children can decorate a pumpkin, wash a pumpkin or even
create a witch's brew. There are also small medium and large pumpkins around the classroom so the children can learn sizing.
South America is the new continent add to the shelf. In addition the children can explore about community helpers and dream about careers. What did you want to be???
Along with the new year the school was effected by the storm that came through. Lighting struck the tree right outside the school. The power went out but all the kids did a great job getting to a safe place.
