…creates an active day with dancing, lessons, and smiles inside!

And one more day of snuggling in our winter coats before we [maybe] put them away for the season. I do wonder if the Crazy Texas Weather will slip one or two more freezing days in before mid-March!

Our PaperPie/Usborne Book Fair will be next week in the front classroom!

Please come visit Ms. Adriane from 8:00-9:30, at noon, or after 2:00 to pick up books or to place an order with her. I will send out a link to the online portion of our book fair, if you prefer to see Usborne’s full catalogue of products.

Thank you, dear Parents, for an amazing poetry recital on Saturday.

Please be on the lookout for pictures about our garden! The children will plant their flower seeds in their class’s garden beds sometime this week.

The weather is lovely and it’s almost time to shear the sheep and plant our gardens!

James and I don’t shear our crazy wooly sheep. We tried many years ago and failed miserably. That’s a job for Katie and Darien, two wonderful professionals with a great YouTube channel (you can find them by searching Right Choice Shearing) and lots of wisdom and patience!

…Every detail is of importance, so we must respect everything, even if it does not seem logical to us. We do not know the consequences; we are not the judges, but the servants of nature.”–Montessori

You can sign up for the recital using this link.

We look forward to seeing you all there!

MMS will be closed Monday, February 19th. We hope you all have a wonderful and safe weekend!

Ms. Yenifer brought her uromastyx lizard and her crested gecko to visit today. The younger friends have been reading A color of his own, by Leo Lionni, and everyone was able to connect with a real lizard today using their eyes to observe, but not their hands to touch!

Some of the friends were not quite as excited to see our scaly visitors and sat closer to the back and that’s ok. The Spontaneous Sealions also came to visit the lizards, but I was not able to take pictures. Sorry I missed them!

…how could anything be more fun?” –Katharine Graham

Happy Valentine’s Day to all of our families and dear students!
