Dover Montessori October 2012 Newsletter

Dear Parents:

Much like the farmers harvest their crops; we are now gathering the children together to see the delightful fruit that each one possess. Just as we nourish a plant, a child’s intelligence depends on the order, richness, variety and appropriateness of his environment. Your child will experience the sensitive periods for learning at any given moment. Our tasks, as guides in the classroom, are to promote the budding and flourishing of each child in view of their own uniqueness.

Dover Fire Department – Scheduled for Monday, October 8th at 11:00 a.m. the truck came right in front of our school and the firemen demonstrated how they fight fires dressed in the appropriate gear. Stop-Drop and Roll!!!
