Dear Parents,
Happy New Year! We hope you had a wonderful holiday season
and are ready to embark on a fresh, exciting start to 2025 with us. We are
kicking off this year with tons of enthusiasm, and our students are already
diving into fun and enriching learning experiences.
Our theme for the first part of January is "Winter
Wonderland," and we’re exploring all the wonders that come with this
chilly season. The children have been fascinated by the creatures that thrive
in icy, snowy environments, so we’re focusing on Arctic animals. From polar
bears to seals, we're learning about these incredible animals and their
adaptations for surviving in such cold climates.
To make our learning even more hands-on and creative, we’ve
been engaging in crafts. This week, the students made adorable Arctic animals!
It was such a fun experience, and it gave the children the chance
to practice their fine motor skills while exploring the textures and shapes of
these amazing animals.
In our cooking activities, we got into the spirit of the
season by baking delicious chocolate chip cookies! The kids had a blast mixing
ingredients, measuring, and, of course, enjoying the sweet results. The smell
of fresh cookies filled the classroom, making it feel even cozier on these
chilly days.
Of course, we always try to balance our classroom time with outdoor play and gym time. Despite the cold temperatures, the weather was perfect for a little outdoor fun. It wasn’t too cold, and the sunshine made it just right for the children to run, play, and enjoy some fresh air.
We’re excited for the months ahead as we continue to explore, learn, and grow together.
