This session was over in the blink of an eye! Session 3 was a short one, but it is onto Session 4 where the quest will be focused on chess! The Elementary Studio had a fabulous exhibition and we can’t wait to see what the next session brings!

Our heroes have been doing an excellent job this week of identifying the monsters they are facing in the moment and challenging each other to slay them! Which monster do you encounter most often on your journey - resistance, victimhood or distraction? 

It’s a new session and we officially have a new hero in the Elementary Studio! Tucker completed his trial week and the tribe has voted for him to join the group. Congrats Tucker and welcome to the ES studio! On Friday, the ES learners decided to trade in their hero bucks for a lunch limo to Chick-fil-A. We also experienced a lot of Halloween fun between costumes, baking, and art!

Session 2 came to an end and it was a busy week! The ES had a mini exhibition and the Children’s Business Fair. We had another entrepreneur visit, but this time the Little Heroes got to sit in on the interview as well!

Welcome back from Fall Break heroes! It was a short week, but one filled with several exciting experiences. ES had visitors and got to go on a short trip, there was a birthday in the Little Heroes studio, and for “Fun Friday” the reward was s’mores!

We have had a jam packed week at ALA! We went on our first field trip of the school year and played at Discovery Park. There was also a lot of learning - Kain set a new school record for weekly points in core skills (math, reading, writing) with over 1,600! Congrats to Kain and all ES heroes who met/exceeded their goals this week.

The theme of this week was gratitude! Both studios had several discussions about what gratitude means and what they are thankful for. The ES heroes started writing in gratitude journals and sharing what they wrote in closing circle. What are you thankful for today?

We can’t believe Session 2 has already arrived! The heroes are finding their flow at school and expanding on their strengths. Any difficulties throughout the week have provided great opportunities for group discussions and reflection. Ask your learner what their favorite part of the week was!
