Open House & Observations

I’d like to start off by inviting all of you to join us at our Carnival and Open House this Friday. If you are currently a Morey PSA family, or a family who is interested in touring the school and meeting the staff members, we hope to see you there!  The Open House is taking place at Morey, and is from 5pm – 8pm.

Now, I would like to share some things I recently observed take place in one of our Kindergarten rooms.

I was chatting with one of our kindergarten teachers who shared this observation:

One child was asking another to spell the words on the word wall in their room, without looking.  Each time the child spelled a word correctly, the first child’s face lit up with happiness for her friend!  She was so pleased that her friend was being successful. What a beautiful thing.

Today I saw another kindergarten child present one of his work projects to the rest of the class. He had composed the equivalent of $1.00 out of each kind of coin, from pennies to quarters. On his work rug he had carefully counted and placed rows of 100 pennies, 20 nickels, 10 dimes, and 4 quarters. Just before clean up time, the others gathered to hear his explanation.

It was nice to see his work and to see him share with the others who appreciated his effort and explanation.
