A win for the Eagles 🦅 in overtime!
For the last two weeks, the preschool class at The Southern Berkshire Childcare Program has been learning about winter and ice. After reading Night Tree by Eve Bunting the children asked if they could decorate a tree in the woods with food for the animals just like the story described. Working together the children made strands of apples, oranges and cheerios. They also put some bird food out along with breaking up some bread for the smaller animals. A week later we took a hike back to the tree to see if the animals enjoyed the food. The children were very excited to find almost all the food gone.

After having talked about what Paris was like in the 1900’s, students learned more about the Impressionists and their movement. Once at the Clark Art Institute, students were able to see the difference between a true academic painting, one that would have been accepted at the Salon, in Paris, and paintings from the Impressionists which were often refused at the Salon. During our visit, we had the chance to see several paintings of Pierre Auguste Renoir, Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Camille Pissarro, and Mary Cassatt.

A mental health message from the Positive Psychology Council:
Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) are Good for Everyone!
It's nice to be the recipient of a kind act, but did you know that there are many benefits for the person who does the good deed? Such as:
-reduced stress
-increased endorphin release and sense of well being
-lower anxiety and depression
-release of the “love hormone” oxytocin, which lowers blood pressure
-increased energy and feelings of happiness
So go for it, be a RAKtivist – do a Random Act of Kindness every day!
