Join us for CETAbration. Wednesday, March 16th, from 6:00 - 7:30
Families are welcome to step into their child's world as we explore education through a different lense. Our exemplary project here at Drew is our CETA program "Changing Education Through the Arts".
Working closely with the Kennedy Center, teachers and staff are taught new strategies to help engage children through various artistic expressions. We would love to share with you some of the new applications we have learned this year. This is your opportunity to see it first hand and ask as many questions as you want. Hope to see you there.

It is difficult to explain what goes on in a Montessori classroom.
Photos give a better feel for what is actually going on. This week was pretty busy getting back in the grove of the work cycle. Here are some pictures of the afternoon session. Next week we will try to focus on the morning session featuring some of the younger crowd.

Valentine's Day
VWe will have a low key celebration where the children who want to participate,may purchase or make cards to be distributed on Friday, during morning work session. Please do not address cards to specific children , however, your child should sign their cards. Throughout the morning on Friday each child who brings cards will have the opportunity to distribute the cards to their friends. When the cards are passed out we will enjoy a group snack. Please do not send in candy or additional treats.
Welcome January 2016
This past month flew by, in part because we missed so many days of school. The. Children came back refreshed and ready to work.
This past month the children explored the Antarctic regions of the South Pole. We found that there are at least 17 different kinds of penguins. I think their favorite name is the macaroni penguin. They also focused on the book called The Mitten, by Jan Brett. The children retold the story many times using a CETA strategy we learned at the Kennedy Center. We have also been memorizing The Mitten Song poem. The children have been designing their own mittens finishing them off with stitching around the edges to add a little texture.
