northern lights
The northern lights are sometimes called by their scientific name, aurora borealis, It is a result of the Earth’s magnetic waves, and the wind that create these colors in the sky. Our classroom will include geography lessons that will teach us where in the world we may view these lights, the difference between northern & southern lights, and we also have several beautiful and open-ended art projects planned! Each child will paint their own version of an aurora borealis & with it we will create a beautiful (& scientific) art piece that can be displayed for all to see.
A bit of classroom news- Teacher Liz (from NP1) will join South Preschool with Teachers Linnea and Jayde. Liz will be in charge of the online learners in this classroom and will be brought up to speed on this over the winter break by Erika and Linnea. Liz is excited to make this change and to learn from Teacher Linnea while she supports the kids in the South Preschool class. South Pre says goodbye to Vera H. and Taani (who are moving to NP1) and hello to Nathaniel (from NP1) and Cruz (from toddlers)!
