Brain Exploration, Team Building, and Alpine Fun (Session 1, Week 3)

Hello, Sparks Tribe Families!

We’ve wrapped up an incredible third week of school, filled with learning, connection, and creativity!

Muscle Monday kicked off with a fascinating video about the brain. Sparks engaged in a meaningful discussion about how we can use both our brains and our hearts to navigate different situations. This conversation helped learners understand the importance of thoughtful decision-making and empathy.

On Team Building Tuesday, Sparks played The Hot Seat game, where they had the chance to learn more about one another in a fun and interactive way. Through sharing and laughter, our tribe grew closer, and the bonds between learners became even stronger.

All About Me Wednesday gave our learners a chance to express themselves by sharing stories and showcasing their favorite toys. It was heartwarming to see Sparks discovering common interests, sparking deeper personal connections and friendships.

Thoughtful Thursday was all about gratitude. Our Sparks tribe explored what it truly means to be thankful. They wrote heartfelt thank you cards to those they appreciate, fostering an atmosphere of kindness and reflection.

We ended the week with Friday Fun at Alpine Scout Camp. Sparks were introduced to the concept of a nature mandala. The learners were challenged to create their own using natural elements. They spent the day at Alpine, surrounded by nature, participating in House Cup games led by our Launch Pad Learners.

Enjoy the weekend, Sparks families! We look forward to another exciting week ahead.
