Students learned about SENSES this week and about LISTENING. We listen with our whole bodies: eyes watching, ears listening, voice quiet and body calm. Ask students if they can sing you the "Listening Song" they learned! 👀👂👄
‼️❤️🌈COLOR DAYS begin next week! Next Tuesday, September 3rd, we will begin the month by all wearing RED if you're able! This is a fun way to learn, practice and discuss our colors together. All students will be included to participate.🌈❤️‼️
