Initially I intended to delete the older posts and start fresh....until I read them. Admittedly nostalgia presented itself upon reading about Rockets from two years ago....one post mentions Sophie, a sibling of a current Rocket. After reading the posts I realized that some of the information still applies to my current Rockets and that some of you might enjoy reading them....your choice.
Reflective Rainbows.....
I was given a rainbow maker several years ago by my father-a retired Physics teacher. It hangs on the window in our classroom and especially during bright sunny mornings it shoots rainbows across our classroom. This was great until the first time I was reading a story to the class and competing with children excitedly shouting out "There's a rainbow!" That was the very moment "rainbow reflections" we're created. Your children have already experienced the rainbow maker and have learned about rainbow reflections. They probably won't recall these phrases off hand, but they do know what to do.....
On Friday upon seeing a rainbow sweet Adelaide started to shout out "there's a..." only to catch herself, stop, touch her heart and with eyes closed take a breath thinking about her mommy and daddy.
Know parents that while we're busy at school you are frequently thought of during moments like these thanks to our rainbow maker.
