The Golden forest

 

As this was our official last Community day we decided to spend our morning

 in the golden forest and the field near by.

Before we left we asked the  class "What will we see at the golden forest.?"

Ann: The leaves aren't gonna be golden.

Ren: No red.

Max: There will be green leaves.

Kaia: When I was coming to school it wasn't golden.

 Students practiced their tree climbing skills.

Kept cool in the shade and played on the bleachers.

While others played games and explored the woods.

At the end of the morning we returned to the classroom to cool down, enjoy a popsicle from Doctor Yu and Ms Faubion, and listen to Mr Andrews story about George and Georgina, the clay puppets.

QUESTIONS
Who did George and Georgina meet ?

What do you remember about your visit to the  Golden forest today?

 Despite Co-vid, mask wearing, lots of transitions, and staying isolated from the rest of the lower school I feel it has been a successful year.  Your child has grown in so many ways.  I feel fortunate to have been their teacher  and I know Ms Lawrence feels the same.  I am sorry that Ms Castillo did not have an opportunity to visit, but we mentioned her in our morning song every day.   On Monday Ms Lawrence and I will be ready with lots of hugs and hopefully we won't shed too many tears as we say goodbye.

Enjoy the Summer!

Love Ms Small and Ms Lawrence
