Wrapping Up August

Saying Bye to Summer 2025

Summer is Winding Down…

…and we are preparing for an exciting school year ahead. Let’s reflect on the joy, laughter, and learning we shared this summer at Sonnets.

We stayed cool with water days, bubbles, and plenty of outdoor fun. Little artists explored nature-inspired crafts, from leaf crafts to sidewalk chalk murals and we LOVED gathering outside for books, songs, and movement under the summer sky. Lastly, we can’t forget our curious minds and all the discoveries this summer; insects, flowers, and outdoor science experiments and field trips ALL over our city.

Next Up - September Curriculum Theme: “Seat Belts Everyone! It’s Time to Explore”

Highlights of the Month

Creative Curriculum

Our classrooms came alive with creativity this summer. Each room explored its own unique themes and ideas - ranging from nature & science discoveries to imaginative art projects & storytelling adventures - giving children the freedom to learn, play, & express themselves.

Enrichments in the Summer

Exploring Hispanic culture in Spanish class through the lively art of dancing! We practiced rhythm, coordination, and listening skills while learning basic steps, all while connecting movement to language and cultural traditions. It was a fun & engaging way to bring Spanish lessons to life!

Ice Cream Social

We celebrated the end of a wonderful summer with smiles, laughter, and lots of ice cream! Our students and their families enjoyed a sweet treat and each other’s company at the Sonnets Ice Cream Social - what a fun way to wrap up the season!
