Ted DiRenzo Montessori School

Yeah! Ms. Rose came today!  We had lots of fun and laughter, singing and dancing.  Finger puppets came out to play in the E1/E2 classroom along with songs about birds that flew away and came back and monkey's that like jumping on the bed.  For the older classes, Ms. Rose and her blue guitar got little toes to tapping and hands to clapping!  In honor of St. Patrick's day, there were special green "jewels" to wear and an energetic jig to dance.  Great job as always Ms. Rose! The students and teachers had lots of fun learning through music.  We cannot wait to see you again next month.

      Ms. Rose was here today!  We danced, sang, and had lots of fun.  She brought her special blue guitar and we were rockin' and a rollin' to start off music enrichment in the new year.  We always like having her come and teach us new songs and activities in her fun and exciting way.
                   
                         Thanks Ms. Rose!

     Today the air was filled with the sound of bells.  It's the holiday season again!  We had a special holiday music enrichment today.  There were holiday songs, a Christmas tree poem, and lots of bells to play music with.  The children had lots of fun and did a great job helping make music.  Happy holidays to all of our family and friends.

Today was our Harvest Celebration.  Miss Rose told the story of the first Thanksgiving as we sat around our camp fire.  She showed us how the Native Americans used drums to talk to each other and we saw a Teepee and how some Native American girls and boy dressed long ago.  We sang song, "roasted" marshmallows, and wore our Native American and Pilgrim hats.  It was so much fun!  Happy Harvest!

Last week we had a visit from Miss Rose! 

Today was music enrichment with miss Rose.  She taught about the flag, the number of stars and stripes, and Presidents George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.  The kids sang and danced the class away. They also did a special song honoring Martin Luther King Jr.  

Miss Rose Barnett runs a program called Music Seeds. In addition to coming to TDRMont every first Saturday of each month she holds a free class at the Folsom Church of Christ in Folsom, PA.  The class is free and is open to children from preschool to early middle school age.
