All About Me Artwork

In the past few weeks, all of the children from the before and after school programs have created "All About Me" artwork, which is now being displayed in Weymouth's main hallway. The kids answered the questions: 

• What's your name? 
• How old are you? 
• What's your favorite food? 
• What's your favorite color? 
• What do you like to do for fun? 
• What do you want to be when you grow up?

Then, Ms. Alison and Abby took individual pictures of each person, asking them to pose however they liked. We ended up with a collection of pictures ranging from silly to serious, outgoing to shy. Finally, all of the kids painted a picture to express themselves through art. All of the school-age teachers worked together to compile the final product: a gallery as unique as the kids in our program! Check out our display below and stop in to see it in person!

Our New Garden

Although we've gone back to school after spring break, there is still a lot of spring fun going on in our school-age room before and after school! We've been continuing work on our garden, which is located by the blue picnic tables in the back corner of our playground. Once we finish digging out the grass to ready our garden, we'll be planting sunflowers, lettuce, tomatoes, green beans, and many other crops. As spring and summer progress, we'll watch our garden grow!

Happy Spring Break!

We finished our spring wall, adding painted lady bugs and a whole garden of flowers made from recycled materials! We were so excited with the finished wall that we posed for pictures with fun spring-related props in front of it! 

We've been having lots of fun gardening, swimming and reading Mr. Popper's Penguins this week as we enjoy some time off from school.
