Tucker Room

Sing A Long

9/13/2019

0 Comments

 
Today was our very first Sing A Long of the year and it was wonderful to have so many parents and care takers present! The whole school gathered in Blake Hall and sang some of our favorite songs. In the classroom, some friends shared they don't always enjoy sing a long, but instead of feeling frustrated by an activity they are required to participate in, we asked them to find solutions that would make Sing A Long something they love.While the teachers and parents have provided input in our new and improved tradition, we want the children to feel the some empowerment create a collaborative experience that meets all of our needs.

Elle: I want more songs! The unicorn song!
Grace: I want a tuba!
Louise: I can play the violin
Austin: We should play Christian music.

​We are taking tours around the school to notice all of the things that stayed the same and all the things that have changed. After stopping to look at our family collages, the children were proud to share details of their collage but also had questions about the families of their friends. Underneath the collages is our new light table that Victor built for us. The children were excited to see the new colors they created when layering sheets of colored acetate and tried to guess what new colors each combination would make. Charlie also noticed everything turned red when he placed the acetate over his eyes. Color mixing has been a reoccurring theme this week that is strengthened by the different materials and experiences.
