The letter is from Anya Vogel, a classroom teacher at The Small Yorktown educational practice, to Mr. Sulu regarding his daughter Mia. The practice focuses on social, emotional, and moral development through play, choice, and activities. Their goals include helping children learn communication and understanding emotions to solve problems. Activities range from individual to group work. The practice encourages using words instead of physical aggression to solve conflicts and build self-confidence. They ask questions to help children understand themselves and their families. The practice believes all forms of development are important to a child's growth.
