Here’s a little look into what our co-op plans for a weeks worth of learning, playing and exploring!

We are in Africa! This week, we will continue to work together, as a team between both groups, to bring our hallway jungle to life! With the cobbles cutting leaf patterns and the pebbles assembling the vines, our kids are sure to feel out of the US and into the second largest continent on Earth. The safari will continue as we learn about various other animals that live in Africa! We will explore non-fiction texts, talk about their features, and use them to learn about exciting new animals. Recording data and creating animal crafts too! Research is soo much fun! : ) We will use sand tables to learn about rivers, the Congo river basin, and how water affects an area. This discussion will continue next week when we move to the Sahara Desert Region where we discuss lack of water, and compare and contrast the two climates.

Check out this our projects thus far learning all about the African Nations!

(And one photo of the stellar-new- yoga positions of the pebbles!)

Play….Learn… Explore… with each other! Co-op, and pre-school age, is all about discovering the world around us all while figuring out our place within our environment. SACC is the perfect place for these things to occur, especially with the help of our amazing facilitator 👏🏼 🙌🏼

The next few weeks are filled with learning about different regions around the world, and the animals that live in those habitats! Starting with the Arctic 🐻‍❄️(sure does align with this cold front!) and ending with the Desert 🌵! Experiencing each area in terms of animals, experiments that show how it feels to be there and new terminology is all in our plan ☺️

🍁FALL HAS ARRIVED!🍁

The weather is turning & the leaves are changing! All smiles here at co-op with our friends!! This past week we learned about autumn colors (brown, red, orange, green and yellow).

This week, we are going to focus on cool and cold weather! 🌨🥶 Have a great week!!

A little glimpse of the amazing Halloween parties ours classes had last week at co-op! Our space was decorated just as much as all their little faces! We especially loved trick-or-treating next-door (that’s a photo of our toddlers following the path, holding their rope, to our destination) 🎃 Thank you everyone for participating and celebrating with us!

Who is ready for Halloween? 🧙 🎃 SENSORY play has been the highlight of this unit! Slime and brains (spaghetti) and eyeballs (meatballs) and guts (jello)! We hope you have a safe & spooky holiday!!

Circle time is the children’s time to come together, say good morning, reenforce knowledge (like classmates names, colors, and letters), learn the particular weather terminology for the day, identify new words we are learning with the weekly lessons and so fourth. It’s a great way to share our space with our friends and facilitator! Not only are we learning, but understanding how to listen, too! We are loving this cool front we are experiencing, how about you? 🎃 🍃 🍁

It’s been a beautiful week here in central Texas as both classes finished up learning about our last planet, Neptune! Pre-K finished their solar system models and they came out beautifully! Swipe to see 🙂

I’d have to say, the highlight of this week for BOTH CLASSES, was finger painting with edible paint (mix yogurt with food coloring and go-get-messy!!!)

Send us a message if you’d like to know more about SACC and to be added to our waitlist!

Happy Fall, Y’all 🍃 🍁 🍂

🚀 Continuing learning our way through the solar system! 🚀

We are almost to the end of our planets, stay tuned or for final 3D models our PreK class is making!

A little bit of play, sprinkled with a little bit of learning, topped with many, many snacks (of course) equals a whole lot of love for our co-op!! Swipe to see how to paint a perfect brown, orange, red and white JUPITER with a balloon!

Here at SACC, with the support of their parents and facilitator, children learn how to treat others, how to get along in a social setting, and how to build a sense of assurance about themselves as individuals. What’s a better way to feel confident and included than seeing an evolving space (classroom) that includes you and your artwork?

Spots still available for both age groups, DM for more info!

Princesses welcome! 👑 👸🏼 We love 💜 imaginative play at the co-op! The kind of open-ended, unstructured play, with no rules, goals, or result – except that kids learn a lot along the way!
