Creative World School

It's the beginning of November, and Creative World School is headed To The Grocery Store! Whether you bring your child along with you to the store or place virtual food orders, you can still support this month's inquiry. Invite your child to help make decisions about food choices. Discuss the prices of foods and how that impacts your decisions. Look at the nutrition information and why it is important to check the ingredients of foods. Once you have the groceries at home, invite your children to help you sort them as you put them away. Work together as you use the ingredients to cook favorite family recipes or follow the directions on boxes. The grocery store offers so many opportunities for learning!

Creative World Corporate Team donated 1 cent for every step taken during our Pink Out Walking Challenge. We walked 216,849 steps, resulting in a total donation of $2,168.50 for Breast Cancer Research. You may still support Breast Cancer Awareness through our Susan G. Komen fundraising page here: https://bitly.com/3e6595r.

Handwashing is key to staying healthy! At Creative World Schools, we have enhanced our handwashing by repeatedly teaching appropriate handwashing processes. We count to 21, sing the ABCs or the Happy Birthday song all while washing the germs away! Increased frequency of handwashing is a standard part of our day! #CreativeWorldSchool #WashYourHands

A bit of help is all that you need to ignite spark in the curious minds of young kids. Our Exploratorium is a perfect setup for these curious minds to engage to allow them to explore, learn and play. Young minds get to engage using their 5 senses and are introduced to technology to make learning more creative and fun You can't use up creativity. The more you use the more you have - Maya Angelou #CWSVinings #CreativeMinds

Art is a natural activity to support a child's free play. The freedom to express in an unstructured way allows for exploration and experimentation. See our kids in action with Halloween colors!

We often think that children come by creativity and curiosity naturally. While this is true to some degree, Mitch Resnick of MIT encourages us to foster children's creativity through activities that help children imagine possibilities, create, play, share, and then reflect on processes and outcomes. His article and TED talk provides concrete ways for families to strengthen children's propensity for creativity. https://bitly.com/2SmcGml

Creative World Schools continue to #DoOurPart by minimizing cross-contact in our classrooms. Each school has a safe and designated pick up and drop off procedure for the families we serve. And, we make every effort to ensure that children are in the same classroom groups with the same masked teaching teams each day. #CreativeWorldSchool
