New friends

We have found several "new friends" lately on our playground! We caught a few to enjoy and observe for a short while. We found a snail, caterpillar and a Praying Mantis!

Happy Birthday, Hallie!

We had a good time celebrating our friend, Hallie's birthday today! Our Montessori birthday celebrations are a very special event for each child. I enjoying learning new things about each friend during these celebrations. We wish you a very happy birthday, Hallie!

September Artist

Each month for the remainder of the school year we learn about a different artist, look at their lives, their artwork and create some of our own art inspired by that particular artist. 

For the month of September we have started to learn about Wassily Kandinsky. Born in Russia he was one of the first recognized abstract artists who loved using bright colors. Using Kandinsky's painting, Squares with Concentric Circles (as seen here) we created our own "Kandisnky circles" which will be completed and on display during open house in October. Here's a little sneak peek...
