63. Flashlights, bird feeders, skittles and cornflakes! A sneak peek into the Winter Four Seasons Curriculum
Today we’re sharing a sneak-peek inside our Four Seasons Curriculum. Check out all the details and snag the year-long course at www.clapforclassics.com/fourseasons Music We start with one of our favorite songs from the winter course: Down with Darkness. We have fun using flashlights and a drum while we learn this song. Down with darkness, up with light Up with sunshine, down with night Each of us is one small light But together we shine bright Go away darkest blackest night Go away -- give way to light Art For the winter course, Ms. Krisanne, our wonderful art teacher, introduces us to the artist Peter Bruegel and his wintry paintings. STEM The winter course is all about color! Dr. Rojas put together 4 stem labs that encourage curiosity, observation, and teach lots of scientific concepts in age-appropriate ways. Poetry Ms. Leslie and Ruby bring seasonal poetry to life. We share Charlotte’s favorite on the episode: DECEMBER LEAVES by Kaye Starbird The fallen leaves are cornflakes That fill the lawn’s wide dish, And night and noon The wind’s a spoon That stirs them with a swish. The sky’s a silver sifter, A-sifting white and slow, That gently shakes On crisp brown flakes The sugar known as snow.
