Month of the Young Child

Last month we celebrated the month of the young child with an emphasis on family culture. Each student in our program is a member of unique culture and brings with them new ideas, thoughts and traditions. We want to celebrate the ways we are different, and the common threads that we all share. Our month was divided into 4 focus weeks. We spent time learning about the various traditions families in our program have. We also spent time looking at maps and pictures from our neighborhood, our state and our world. We listened to music from a variety of time periods and cultures. Lastly, we invited family members in to our program to share something from their family culture- a language, a song, a recipe etc.


We really enjoyed getting to learn more about each family. Thank you for sharing your items and resources with us.
