Every year, the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) celebrates the “Week of the Young Child”. During this week, we celebrate young children and their families with hands-on, collaborative activities that encourage healthy lifestyles through music, food, and art. We celebrate this week in our school with fun-filled activities including music, dancing, family participation, and working together. This year, we scheduled a week of activities including:
- Mindful Monday: bring a picture of your family to share with your class
- Tasty Tuesday: bring a healthy snack to share
- Work Together Wednesday: pair up with another class to play a game or complete an activity
- Artsy Thursday: sidewalk chalk drawing
- Jamming Friday: music classes for all with our music therapist, Ms. Brianne
In addition to these fun days, we invited family readers in to school to read to their child’s class and had a fun assembly with “Bubble Guy Mike”. We are so lucky to be able to spend this fun week with our students and their families!
