Little School & Early Childhood Hub

We are pleased to announce that Kate Rezendes, who graduated in 2001, has returned to the Lincoln community as an Administrative Assistant for Little & Lower Schools. We are excited to have her as part of the team! Please say hello to Kate the next time you are in Lower School. She is eager to meet everyone!

Engagement with nature is vital for young children. It provides “multi-sensory, movement-based, holistic and stimulating experiences” that are well suited for children!  On a daily basis, our children and their teachers embrace the weather; the mud, snow, rain, and the experience! In each of our classrooms, we recognize that outdoor spaces provide the experience of vastness and different textures that organically inspire students with the opportunity to take risks and explore while fully connecting with their senses. On our walks, the children can decide how high to climb, what they want to see, and what they want to touch. Outdoor play is an integral part of our program in every season! In addition to everything else, we believe that it unleashes a whole lot of joy!

In almost all of our Little School and Early Childhood classrooms, wall easels bring children together for a vertical painting or drawing experience. They love the conversation that working closely with a friend offers, but what they don’t realize is that there is so much more happening!
