Jack and the Bean Stalk

Since January, Ms. Megumi and the children have been making Marionettes for a Jack and the Bean Stalk puppet show. Every Tuesday they gathered after school to hand sew puppets and choreograph the show. We have been anxiously waiting to see the results because they kept it all under wraps from us parents.

Today we finally saw the performance, and it was amazing! I can't believe what they created. The puppets and the kids were magnificent!

How fortunate they are to have such an experience. Thank you Megumi, you are saint!

Sun Downer

It is tradition for the families of Sanderling to gather at Moonlight Beach for an evening picnic the last week of school. Another school year comes to an end; where does the time go?

Drift Wood Ships

This was our final wood shop project of the year. I like this one because it's so easy and eco! Surprisingly it wasn't so easy finding seven flat/wide pieces of drift wood. (I think I went to most the beaches in Encinitas.)

The children made a hole for the mast with a hand drill then sawed the dowels. They punched holes in the sail cloth and threaded the dowels through. Viola! A new toy for the bath tub!
