We spent some quiet time today sitting with a sunflower π»
Our class observed its petals, the textured center, the gentle curve of the stem, taking in the little details at their own pace. Still life gave them space to slow down, to notice, and to create what they saw and felt in their own way.
Each piece carries their perspective, thoughtful, curious, and beautifully individual.

Our classroom made its own Stone Soup this week π²β¨
Each child brought a little something to share, then worked together to wash, prep, and mix our ingredients. When the soup was ready, we all sat down to enjoy a meal we created as a community. Grateful for these moments of togetherness, teamwork, and the joy that comes from contributing to something we all share πβ€οΈ
