One of the most popular school-wide events is our Superhero Dress Up Day! Dress up days are so fun and a great way to bring the school together. The children voted for Superhero Day in our school election. For President's Day we discussed what a President is, how do we get a President, and how important our voices are. To make this concept applicable to their lives, we held an election! We set up a voting booth in our lobby and throughout the day parents, teachers, and students, cast the vote on Superhero Dress Up Day or Rainbow Dress Up Day for the month of March. This was a simple way to promote engagement with our activities calendar, help to solidify the concept of voting, and it gave children something to look forward to!

The children had so much fun planting seeds and digging in the dirt! In a world where connecting with nature is becoming increasingly more difficult, we strive to nurture their curiosity and wonder. As they dig their hands into the dirt, they are connecting, not only to our Earth, but to their sense as well. Children will continue to learn empathy and compassion as they care for their sprouting plants. While it was too early in the season to provide children with blooming plants, children are still able to learn about the changing seasons and cycles of growth and decay. Simply digging, feeling the sun and the breeze, and smelling the scents of spring brought a sense of calm and focused attention to the children.

Kindness Tree Celebration!
Congratulations to our Pre K class for completing their Kindness Tree. Upon completion, the class gets to choose how to celebrate and this time they chose a picnic party! Kindness Trees can be implemented at home or at school! Check out the Conscious Discipline website for more tips!
"Use the Kindness Tree to recognize and celebrate acts of kindness in your School Family or home. Each time a kind act occurs, simply attach a heart to the Kindness Tree to represent the kindnesses occurring in your classroom or home."
