December is here.

We've got some pretty active preschoolers enjoying both inside and outside school time.
Enjoy this group of photos.

Fall into winter.....

As the days get colder we spend a little more time inside.  There's been lots of active learning and 

extra-curricular participation with gymnastics and yoga (not pictured here).  Enjoy our latest batch of photos of your happy kids!

Busy, busy, busy!

Our classroom has been so busy lately!  

Although we're full of energy and trying to spend as much time in the autumn sunshine as possible, when we have inside work time

 the children are happy to choose materials from off the shelf and are amazing us with their long attention spans.  We've also had several fun enrichment activities including: gymnastics with Jeff, yoga with Becky (pictured in this group of photos), and Spanish with Rayma and Pablo.  You'll find a slideshow at the bottom of this run of photos that includes several more in-class photos and all the pictures from the firefighters visit.

Enjoy and Happy Halloween!
