Dear Nursery Families,
With great delight as I reflected upon the great year I had with your children, I re-recorded all of their birthday songs as duos with violin and guitar (one track has a viola, the other a cello). You can listen or download for free by visiting http://williamdolde.com/fr_birthdaysongs.cfm. Please share with grandparents and friends. Please let me know if there are any technical glitches.
Blessings on your summer,
William Geoffrey Dolde

Dress for Rain
Today's festival includes a puppet show about the Mossy Men; they bring rain and moisture to help the plants thrive. It seems the Mossy Men are active at present on Whidbey Island. Most of our festival today will be outdoors; while there are covered places, do dress yourself and your child for cooler, wetter weather.
I will have warm soup and rice available starting at 9am to warm you from the inside. I look forward to seeing you today.

Last Day Schedule
Dear Nursery Families,
On Wednesday, June 9, parents are invited to join us at 11:30am outside the classrooms on the playground. We will join with the kindergarten families to share Strawberry Shortcake. If you are unable to be present at 11:30, please let me know; this event tends to work best when every child has a parent or caregiver with her or him.
William
The formal school day will end at this time and we request that all children have an adult present to supervise them.
If you know you are not able to attend please arrange with another parent to supervise and pick up your child.
There will be no extended care this day for early childhood children.

Vegetables Tuesday
Please bring a bounty of vegetables on Tuesday. I hope to make extra soup for Friday's festival.
We have a volunteer photographer for Tuesday. I also know at least one student and Lynne won't be there Tuesday, so I propose we try an informal shot then and another one on the next Wednesday.

Save some time on June 9
Dear Nursery Families,
On our official last day of school this year, Wednesday 9, we often invite parents to join us for part of the morning. I am still working out exact details with Kim and Dyanne, and I will pass along a more exact schedule to you when I have a clear picture to pass along.
We will likely have a special event with our middle school friends next Tuesday; it will also be the last day this school year for one of our students. I wonder if there is a parent willing to try an informal photo at 12:20 to share with our parents (our official photo does not include two of our newer students). I will also have some of my gifts for students Tuesday.
The year goes on after that, of course. We look forward to celebrating our June birthdays on June 7 and June 8, as well as our closing festivities on the 9th.
Thanks,
William

reminder about Wednesday's talk
Form, Space & the Philosophy of Freedom:
Looking Toward Tolle & Steiner to Guide Our
Parenting & Teaching
~A Lecture by WIWS Faculty Member William Dolde~
Wednesday, May 26th, 5:00 - 6:00 p.m.
in our Butterfly Nursery classroom, lower level
In this lecture, Mr. Dolde will use some of Eckhart Tolle's concepts to navigate one of Rudolf Steiner's foundational works, The Philosophy of Freedom. Dolde will suggest ways in which the work of both Tolle and Steiner can guide us in our work with children, whether as parents or teachers. The concepts of form and space, important in the Waldorf classroom, will be used to build a bridge between the two conceptual frameworks.
