Attitude of Gratitude
I want to share something with all of you. I was able to get my first dose of the vaccine last week. I have a lot of gratitude that as a teacher I am able to get vaccinated early. I am so grateful to our community for all of the decisions that have been made in the last year making safety a priority. Safety for kiddos, as well as for teachers.
I spent time with a couple families in the classroom last week as we worked on a video for our upcoming open house. I got to see kids doing the work of play. I am excited to be working toward this being our norm again.
Helping 20ish kids, your kids, back to connecting, and being together, making friends, learning to be social and to understand their emotions. Because this is when it happens. In the play interactions with one another. This is social emotional development, learning to play, be friends, learning to regulate emotions in these peer interactions.
Kiddos need to be together. We all do. And we are getting there.
