We dove into all things ocean animals while building friendship, language, and play skills! Through fishing games, ocean-themed Bingo, and lots of hands-on activities, we targeted:

✨ Vocabulary development (naming, describing, categorizing ocean animals)
✨ Social skills (taking turns, cheering on friends, working together)
✨ Following directions & listening
✨ Expanding language through play

And of course… we had to snack on some fish crackers to keep the theme going 🐟😉

Play-based learning + high engagement = meaningful progress 💙

We read Draw Me A Star, created colorful Eric Carle-inspired paper, cut and glued it onto our stars, and enjoyed pizza stars for snack! Such a fun group, and so many skills were targeted along the way—listening, following directions, cutting, gluing, creativity, and language. •

“The Drama Llama” helped us learn all about emotions today!

We talked about many different feelings and situations that can make us feel happy, frustrated, worried, excited, and everything in between.

We also practiced strategies and tools to help regulate our bodies and emotions when things feel overwhelming. One of the most important lessons we learned is that everyone is different — our brains and bodies may need different strategies to help us feel calm, focused, and ready to learn.

Building emotional awareness and regulation skills is such an important part of helping kids succeed in school, friendships, and everyday life! 💛
