Working Together from Home

Hello! We made it to Thursday, nice work 😊

Since we are trying to navigate through these crazy times, what better way to build community in your own home by doing things together?! Today, let's focus on the positives of being together- even though we are very much apart. I think it's safe to say that the impact this is all creating makes us reach for any sense of community and connection. 


Before we left for spring break, the Pine class was working a lot on family and what each of our families look like. We talked about how some have moms and dads, some just have dads, and other families may include grandparents, aunts and uncles. There are so many ways in which we can be a part of a family! The Pine room is its own kind of family. We have a wide range of abilities, ages, and personalities that keep our classroom the fun loving place it truly is. 

How can you build more community in your own home? Maybe it can be as simple as working together on a project, or eating dinner together every night. There is no right way to be a family, but I think in these times its especially important to remember you always have your family- including your school family. 

We, as teachers, have a LOT of love to give. We wish so desperately that we could be sitting in the classroom together creating, laughing, and learning today. 

Stay well & with all of the love,
the Pine teaching team


Please enjoy this video of Ms. Kim and her grandbaby, JP! They worked together to build and create something- I wonder if you can do that today too?

Day 2 Pine Room Fun!

For our invitations we have our small world were we can tell stories about what our families like to do outside. In our dramatic play we are showing how we can care for others, including our baby dolls. Outside we are checking out how fun our giant snail and mud kitchen are.

Happy First Day of School 24-25!

 Welcome Pine Families to our 24-25 school year! We are so happy to have your kiddos back in our room. It is so amazing to see how much they have grown physically AND socially, emotionally, and academically! 

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
