This week, our young Utopians focused entirely on themselves. Not in a selfish manner but for a creative art project. Our students made their very own self portraits. The kids drew the different parts of their faces which we put together at the end of the week.
The nose was the last part of the face that was drawn. Our students learned to identify the parts of the nose - the bridge and the nostrils.
Watch out for our new and improved gallery next week. We will decorate our space with our embellished portraits, which we will be the focus of next week's brainstorming sessions.
The children also assembled intricate ramps. They tried rolling marbles, magnet balls, cars, unifix cubes, and practically anything they can think of. The different ramp models that they have come up with made the balls roll down, go up, turn left, turn right, and even jump. Without them knowing, they were learning about physics!



Reminder: our field trip to the San Francisco Symphony will be Monday, March 14. Utopia will be closed during that day. If you will not be joining us for the field trip, we will see you on Tuesday.
Finally, please check the St. Thomas More website to register for Utopia's fun-filled summer program. We can't believe it - summer is already around the corner!
