Celebrating Ourselves as Super Heroes


Today's class was a celebration of all the superheroes we have learned about this summer.  We also celebrated our own superpowers:

Being kind to friends
Noticing things
Finding things that are missing
Learning new things
Running really fast
Creating new things and having interesting ideas

Talk with your child about the "superpowers" each of you have.  How do you use your superpowers to make the world a better place?

We also made super hero capes!  If you'd like to make your own no-sew cape from an old t-shirt, you can find instructions here:  http://www.clumsycrafter.com/2012/05/t-shirt-super-hero-capes-no-sew/

We learned about superhero Christopher Reeve who played superman in the movies.  We talked about the accident that changed his life, and how he was a superhero because he never gave up.  If your child is interested in learning more about Christopher Reeve, you might like to watch this video of Christopher Reeve on Sesame Street talking about using a wheelchair:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzHvVoUGTOM

It's been a great super hero summer!  I'm excited for a super fall together as well.
