Best of blessings to you all and your loving children. It has been my honor and privilege to serve, know and love your child. I believe the CJP leadership follows the intent of what is best for the children everyday and into 2019. I appreciate all that you do, who you are and your willingness to entrust your child to myself and morah Devora. I love your child and have experienced the love from your child in return. Thank you, they are each unique and beautiful and every one of them occupy a space in my heart. Many thanks and much appreciation to Morah Devora. She will remain the constant in the green room. It has been my pleasure to meet and get acquainted with you and your family members. Sincere gratitude to all of you and the parents you are, involved in your children's lives and futures and for your generous support and contributions.
Today will be Sarah's last day. We wish her and her family well.
We have been exploring the 5 senses. The children enjoyed seeking outdoors what they sensed around them, multiple days of sensory identification: sights, sounds,smells, textures and tastes, etc. Thanks to all for sending in items to share and sense. Alice, Bubby and Shannon for cups and plates, Ava's family for bird sounds and miniatures, temperature changing color items, a doll and grapes. Tzippi shared her doll. Thanks Rachel.
We spoke about taking care of ourselves, others and things. Gentleness towards children and baby dolls and pets. Levi brought in pine cones and silly putty, thanks Skye. Ari and Jenna brought in sea shells and colored craft sticks. Morah Ora and the peach room, thanks for allowing your bird to be our guest. Mason, Ally and Eric sent the recipes and ingredients for the class to make slime and fluffy slime. It was the highlight of Thursdays activities. Thank you all.
Many have learned to slice a banana and juice an orange during the last few weeks, also "tag to the tummy" putting on their own jackets and sweaters. They were surprised and delighted to flip their coats over there heads, slipping their arms into their sleeves, in victory. Each week there are more of them opening and closing their own lunch containers...they did it ALL BY MYSELF!
The sensory journey was a lot of fun seeing those little feet and and people figure out what they were walking on blindfolded and later taking such joy in seeing it and repeating it after the reveal.
The green room will have a new morah when they return from break. Thank you for welcoming me this year. I will miss the community and especially the children.
Con mucho amor,
Morah Cindy and morah Devora
