Tuesday, April 23, 2019

Vivo Inquiry group continued to work the question, "How does play connect us?" by exploring in indoor play today. We will explore outdoor/nature play tomorrow and arts play on Thursday. Then, we will compare and contrast different types of play and how different types of play help to shape our individual/group identities.

Today was the last day for the Joy Pod's E.A. on practicum, Miss M.
We thanked her for everything she has done for us and wished her luck! She will begin working for C.B.E. soon. We hope to see her soon.

Joy Pod is collecting small sized plastic bottles. It would be great if you could send plastic bottles to school this week. Thank you.
