February was an exhilarating month at Stars! It was full of love, joy, and lots of laughter. The theme of February was Cultural Awareness and Friendship. The children were so excited to learn all about their friend’s cultures. They also learned about the importance of Friendship. Some classes even listen to different types of music from each culuture and the children danced around to them.



There was a lot of fun Valentine’s art going on in February. Each classroom had so much fun at their Valentine’s parties. The children enjoyed passing out their Valentine’s cards and having some yummy food with each other. The literature focus of February was Little Blue and Little Yellow by Leo Lionni. After the story, the children mixed blue and yellow to see what color they made together. Each classroom had fun projects to go along with the color mixing.

Our enrichment program was fun for children to learn more in a focused setting. In Spanish, the children learned words associated with Valentine’s Day. In Music, they learned about Johannes Brahms. The children loved cooking; their favorite activity was the ship made of apples, sun butter, and rice crispies cereal. They all painted rocks with hearts and then placed them out in our gardens in art.

March will be such a fun month. The theme of March is the Rainforest and South America. The book of the month will be a plethora of books from the beloved Dr.Seuss. For enrichment, the children continue learning by focusing on music, cooking, art, and Spanish.
