Purple Magic Lesson #8
Teacher Tidbits
Next week is parent week and tuition is due!
The kids did great this week for our recorded lesson! I noticed some tears when activities weren't right the first time. Please remind your children that when they come to class, I'm just letting them TRY things. I don't have extra time to always "start over". Assure them that at home they can take as much time as they need to "get it right".

Purpose in the Play
Song of Joy
After experiencing it with our bodies, your child is ready to execute this tricky upbeat rhythm with their fingers.

"All my brothers of the world, sing this song of joy with me! We shall come together singing..."
