Finding Courage

J stood on top of the rock looking nervously down at the ground. 
"I can't jump, I'm scared!"
She crept closer to the edge as she kept her eyes on the ground below. 
"I am going to try."
She took a deep breath, "3, 2, 1, ready, steady..."
and jumped! 



J landed gracefully and started laughing as soon as her feet touched the ground. 
"I'm going to do it again!"
Several kids gathered around and jumped off one by one to hang in the air for just a second before crashing down onto the ground. 



They took turns jumping off, encouraging one another, and laughing when they landed. It's so fun to see these moments of courage and bravery throughout the day.

Welcome back!!

 I hope you all enjoyed your long break together. We are back at it with our same centers and focus words UP and DOWN. This will be the last week for our current activities and will change it up for the last 2 weeks before our next BIG break. Only 12 days left together for the year and we are counting down!  Please help us celebrate:  Pine’s Friendsgiving Feast! Your kiddos have been hard at work filling each other's buckets through acts of kindness. They earned a special celebration before the Thanksgiving break but we held off our celebration so all friends could participate. Today we read a book called Feast for 10 and were inspired by some ingredients. If you would like to help us celebrate our friendship and donate to our feast, we would love it! Our plan is to celebrate on Thursday Dec 5th. Thanks :) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Zu9-130U8W6xGWiNsdlLMXYA9q8yOASwtSEybrST3Rc/edit?usp=sharing
