Yoga Week ✨🧘‍♂️

This week was all about yoga, mindfulness, and finding our calm! Each morning, we began our day with a peaceful meditation, followed by a variety of yoga poses and movements. The children practiced stretching, balance, coordination, breathing, and mindfulness while having fun together. 🌿

Yoga is a wonderful addition to the Montessori environment because it supports the whole child. It encourages concentration, body awareness, self-regulation, coordination, and independence while giving children the opportunity to slow down and connect with themselves. Just like Montessori, yoga allows children to move at their own pace while developing confidence and a sense of inner calm. 💚

🐢🦔 Animal Quest Visits Our School! 🐍🦜

Today our students enjoyed an exciting in-school field trip with Animal Quest! They learned about different animals and their habitats while getting to see and gently interact with a variety of amazing animals.

It was a fun, hands-on experience that sparked lots of curiosity and smiles!

A big thank you to Mr. Chris and Mr. Cole from Animal Quest for an unforgettable visit! 💚

🍋 Entrepreneur Week was a sweet success! 💛

This week, our students became young entrepreneurs as they planned, created, and ran their very own lemonade stand! From designing banners, making signs, building the stand, practicing teamwork, and serving customers, they experienced what it takes to run a business from start to finish.

After a week of hard work and preparation, each primary student received a paycheck to celebrate their efforts and learn the value of earning through dedication and teamwork. 💵

A heartfelt thank you to all of our wonderful families for supporting our young entrepreneurs by visiting our lemonade stand. Your encouragement made this experience even more meaningful and gave our students a chance to see the joy of their hard work paying off.

Learning through real-life experiences is what Montessori is all about! 🍋✨

Through purposeful, hands-on work, children build confidence one task at a time!

WMA Summer Camp – Engineering Week! 🚀🌉

This week our campers became young engineers as they explored how creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork help shape the world around us!

Throughout the week, the children:
✨ Designed and built their own Golden Gate Bridges using engineering materials.
🚀 Created imaginative space stations while exploring structure, balance, and design.

We also learned about three influential engineers and inventors who changed the world:
🔹 Nikola Tesla – Electrical engineer and inventor whose ideas transformed electricity.
🚗 Henry Ford – Industrial engineer and entrepreneur who revolutionized automobile manufacturing.
☎️ Alexander Graham Bell – Engineer and inventor best known for developing the first practical telephone.

Through hands-on exploration, our campers strengthened their:
• Critical thinking
• Creativity
• Teamwork
• Fine motor skills
• Problem-solving abilities

Watching each child imagine, build, redesign, and proudly share their creations reminded us that engineering begins with curiosity. We can’t wait to see what they’ll discover next!
