We had an exceptionally wonderful morning on this gorgeous day.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! The macaroni and cheese, one of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ‘s, was a hit. I’ll share the recipe next week!

I hope you had a wonderful day.

I hope to see you there! If you are not able to make the night scheduled for your child’s class, you are welcome to attend an alternate night!

Hello, dear Parents!

On Valentine’s Day, we are going to share Birthday Joy with our Austin neighbors and help make a Birthday Box for children in foster care!

Here’s the link to the Sharing Happy Birthdays website.

More details will head your way at the Parent Meeting for your child’s class (only two or so weeks from now!).

We will also have our traditional card exchange on Friday, February 14th.

I hope your week contains fantastic new things!

…to unfold itself–that is the first duty of the educator.” –Montessori

We’re having fun playing outside, learning about simple machines, and working on lessons with friends!

Who watched Beakman’s World and Bill Nye growing up?

Hello, dear Parents!

I have attached January’s calendar for the toddler and primary classrooms. I list our holidays and celebrations as well as certain focus areas of instruction in the primary class. Even though I have these activities scheduled for a specific day, the primary teachers pull together small groups throughout the week for instruction. I also stock the shelves with supplementary for our science and language focus topics. I want to emphasize that these small groups can include anyone who would like to watch and participate. They’re also similar to icing on a delicious cake. They add to the Montessori curriculum but do not take the place of the weekly lessons that the teachers plan for the individual children.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all!
