Hi Magnolia Families,
What a few weeks we’ve had here in Magnolia Classroom- and beyond! We’ve been gearing up for our field trip that finally came this week. Teachers are full of gratitude for all of the collaboration and planning that went into the trip. Thank you families!
Next week is our Spring Break, so this blog will be full of what we’ve been up to these last couple of weeks. You can expect the next blog two weeks after Spring Break!
Nowruz
Mitra shared her Nowruz traditions with Magnolia classroom. This Persian New Year celebration welcomes the season of Spring. Mitra described all of the meaning behind each element of the Nowruz table setting. Watch the video below to learn all about Nowruz!
Our Visit to the Lawrence Hall of Science
Magnolia has been looking forward to our field trip to the Lawrence Hall of Science for over a month! It was a wonderful way to wrap up our study of all things “outer space.” Here’s a link to our shared google photo album- please add any photos or videos you took!
Spring Sing
Music Teacher Chrissy led our ECC campus in a fabulous Spring Sing-along- here’s a video in case you missed it!
Family visits
We welcomed Riaan’s dad Patrick and his grandfather Patrick to join and share about Ireland and St. Patrick’s Day. We learned why Ireland is called the “emerald isle” and heard silly stories about leprechauns, and gold at the end of the rainbow. We even had a silly leprechaun visit Magnolia can you believe it? The leprechaun outsmarted our trap but did leave us each a shiny green shamrock for our efforts!
Robin’s family joined us for Robin’s fourth birthday circle! Even his big brother Linden joined in on the fun. Thanks for celebrating with us!
Hayes and Henley’s family joined us to make REAL ice cream! It was hard work mixing the ingredients up by shaking bags filled with cream, milk, sugar and flavors surrounded by salty ice! We had a dance party which helped shake things up. Friends got to enjoy a taste of each flavor.

Here are a few extra behind the scenes moments from Magnolia- enjoy and have a happy Spring Break 🙂
