// Week of October 22: Curriculum Update //

Brrrr! Though sunny, the temperature drop has been real this week!

Fortunately, many of the Silver Room students are becoming pretty handy with dressing in layers— more friends have mastered the “Montessori Flip” style of donning a jacket, several friends are real pros at zipping their own jackets, and some friends are even able to help other friends with zipping and buttoning up, too.

As the weather cools, dealing with layers will take up more of our recess transition time; parents can help keep these transitions lean and recess time long by helping their children choose layers and shoes that they can manage mostly by themselves (hint: shoelaces are a challenge). We look forward to lots of time outside together, looking for pretty leaves, late-season flowers and busy fall foragers!
