May at Marlowe

May was epic! We started the month with a visit from a beekeeper, who brought a hive so we could observe the bees in action. We welcomed our families into the classroom to watch us work, and we celebrated our moms (and dads) with handmade crafts and a special morning together. 

The children dressed up as everything from astronauts and firefighters to Snow White and tigers, and we filled the days with art projects, lunchtime picnics, glow stick dance parties, and dance time with the bubble machine. We tie-dyed T-shirts, watered the plants with water balloons, and capped the month with Field Day and our 16th annual dance recital. 

The teachers and I have so enjoyed spending time with your children this year. I hope everyone has a wonderful summer break, and I look forward to seeing so many of you at camp and school in the fall!

April at Marlowe

We spent the month exploring outer space and making fun spring crafts. We hunted for eggs, welcomed a mystery reader, and hosted a very special visit from one of our dads, who just so happens to be a pilot! He talked with the children about what it's like to fly a plane and sent everyone home with a pair of wings.

We only have two full weeks of school left, and they are jam-packed with fun. I look forward to hearing our little pianists at the recital tomorrow! Just as a reminder, Mommy and Me is on Friday. We would love for every child to have a special adult with them and want to extend the invitation to daddies, grandparents, nannies, and all the important adults if Mommy can't make it. Our program starts at 8:30 and should be finished by 8:45. I hope to see you all there!
