Overlook Collaborative Preschool is a Reggio Emilia inspired, environmentally friendly
preschool located in the Overlook neighborhood of North Portland.
Birthday traditions! We love celebrating birthdays at school. That means making each child the star of the day so we can celebrate them, their friendship & the year of growth to come. We make a special sweet treat together, make a birthday poster with a tracing of the birthday kiddo, and write down wishes from friends. Each child picks their paint colors, & we all get to help paint the poster together. At the end of the day we sing, blow out candles and enjoy our treat together. ...

We were inspired to draw our feeling from one of our favorite mentor texts, "Niko Draws A Feeling." We talked about what colors might be needed to express our feelings on paper. We have been diving deep into the topic of feelings, naming feelings and exploring what we can do when different feelings happen.
