April Preview

One thing that sets us apart, and that brings us pride is our commitment to being green.  This includes green lifestyle choices, like recycling, re-using, cloth hand towels, green cleaning products, avoiding plastics, re-usable tableware, cloth diaper usage, healthy snacks, and also a curriculum choice to involve lots of time outside and foster environmental stewardship in the kids.  We strive to instill a sense of wonder and respect for nature in their everyday lives.

All this to say that April, the month that holds the celebration of Earth Day, is our month to shine!  We are looking forward to our classroom choices as well as the preparation and beginning of our wonderful new garden.

This month, we will be discussing issues related to taking care of the Earth, such as loving plants, loving animals, good/bad garbage, etc.  Our goal is to increase awareness of why and how we can care for the Earth.

Here are some of the materials we'll be using to bring this message to the kids:
