Hello
Everyone!!
Fall is
here and we are already off to a wonderful beginning of preschool. We had two
great field trips and I hope the children will find fun ways to use their
pumpkins! Three year old class parents ask your child about the enormous pig
that we saw. Pre-K parents ask your
child about the “Bee Sanctuary”. All the
children are getting accustomed to the classroom and they are all adjusting
well.
Your
children are a delight and they will teach us many things. They will help us
remember how to play, to live in the present moment, and to make new
discoveries. The classroom skills we are
working on are; cooperate, share, take turns, laugh, play and “use our words”. In Reading we are learning about the parts of
a book and we are learning to sequence our story. We have also started “finger stretching”
which is stretching out a finger to each letter sound we hear in a word. In Math we are reviewing numbers and their
values, we have also started to learn about patterns. In Science we are learning about mixing
chemicals and their reactions. We have
learned the word predict and have started making predictions about our science
experiments.
I’m
really looking forward to our year together and I look forward to my time with
your children . . . a special time watching them grow and discover.
Things to Remember
·
Have your child use the restroom and wash his/her hands before
coming to class.

Dress for the weather. We will go outside unless it is pouring.

Keep your child home if they have had a fever, have vomited, or
had diarrhea in the last 24 hours. If they are coughing with shortness of
breath, and/or have thick, green “goobers”, please don’t send them to school.
·
If your child will not be attending class, contact me at home or
by e-mail before class starts.
