Our Quote of the week:
"The more that you read, the more things you'll know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." ~ Dr. Seuss
Our
theme this week was the mind and how it is a tool of the heart. Many
children created mind mandalas, so we now have mandalas illustrating
spirit, heart and mind.
This week we did acro yoga, Chi Gong, and
Rhythm Gym for morning movement. Each child created a learning plan
mapping out all of the things from their heart map.
The children
learned the names of the continents, and the location of India on a
map. We also explored Indian culture through books and animals that live
in India.
Many children took surveys to help them understand their
learning styles and the way they learn best using Gardner's Multiple
Intelligences.
In art this week, we did a draw along with Mr. Michael, creating self portraits.
There
will be a Halloween Carnival which the children are creating from their
business class. It will be on October 25th from from 5-8pm, with a
potluck starting at 6:30 at 10801 Old San Antonio rd.
In Jedi training the children worked with awareness of breathe and played many fun games with Margo.
We
explored the Story of the Universe with Michael and Caroline by taking a
trip through our solar system this week and played a game, creating a
scale model depicting the distances of the planets from the sun.
The children are writing and illustrating their own children's books in creative writing.
