小吃和事實社交俱樂部

Did you know that some fish cough? And about 1/4 of our bones are in our feet? And that you can't lick your elbow?

In this ongoing social experience, kids will have the opportunity to share their unique genius while having a healthy snack with new friends. 
Each week we'll have a food theme, a fact category, and an individual sharing opportunity.  Students can munch on something delicious while practicing their social skills and classroom etiquette. 
Our weekly themes (always listed here in the description) offer snack suggestions, categories from which to gather facts, and ideas about individual sharing opportunities.
Before class, students should research to find funny, crazy, or interesting facts that fit into the weekly category.  They should also choose a snack from the weekly suggestions or something similar.
Students can share what they chose for a snack and compare it to other students' during each class.  They'll each have time to share facts they find interesting or funny, based on the week's category. They'll also have the chance to share something they're personally excited about, such as an art project, favorite toy, dance moves, or additional trivia.

****Please, do not enroll your child if they are outside the age range without contacting me first.  Your child will be withdrawn unless the enrollment is pre-approved by me. The age range ensures students are with their peers.  Larger ranges create uncomfortable gaps and make it harder for students to connect.****
