Another wonderful, busy day in the three year old classroom.
Today the children reviewed counting as we played our game of feeding carrots to the beanie bunny, we reviewed letters by naming the letters we pulled out of Curious George’s sack. We decorated foam eggs, had an Easter Egg hunt and decorated cookies for our snack.

Using a variety of foam shapes, the children also made Easter necklaces.
The cross, represents Jesus’ great sacrifice for all of us. The circular shapes represents God’s love for us , like a circle that has no beginning and no end. The star shapes were used to tell us that God’s love for us will always shine above all else. And the flower shapes represent our love for baby Jesus which is always blooming.

Enjoy this very long vacation with your family. I will miss all of you.
Take care of one another.

The three yr old class was busy this morning. We played a ‘feed the bunny’ game where the children had to feed the bunnies a given number of carrots. The children made their bunny bags for the egg hunt which we will enjoy on Thursday morning.

Remember no school next week or the week after that.
Also, please remember the fund raiser that is being held on April 16th. This is a wonderful event and everyone always has a GREAT time! Come and join the fun. The committee-members are looking for a few more helpers as well – check the flyer that went home with your little one today.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Happy Monday! today the children had computer class with Mr. Hartwell. Our circle activities involved reviewing letters and counting skills. Our letter focus is the letter ‘Jj” for this week. We talked about the importance of the Easter season with one another and followed up by making a ’stained glass’ window which is hanging in the hallway.

Remember no school next week or the week after.
If you have not returned your spring pictures or sent in the money for these pictures please do so within the next week.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Today the children worked on counting review and number recognition. This skill was reinforced with Circle Activities and a table top game. The children are bringing home their self-made game. Ask your little one to play the flower pot game with you this evening.

Our drama center has been changed into the “Garden Shop”. The children are free to come to this center to ‘buy’ flowers and other garden related supplies. They can also try their creative style at flower arrangement.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Today we celebrated Lauren’s birthday – Happy 4th Birthday to you, and thank you for the birthday treats. The children made individual cards for our birthday girl by using birthday stamps and Curious George stamps.

We knew that the leprechaun visited the classroom over night, because the shamrock number cards were not in order. We had to fix that. Then he left supplies and directions for making shamrock head bands. You will find the headbands in their backpacks.

Our letter for today is the letter ‘G’. We listened to the story of ‘The three Billy Goats Gruff’ and acted it out using the story figures.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Our beautiful weather invited us outside to play. In addition to enjoying the gift of pleasant weather, we had Spanish this morning and we reviewed the letters ‘Rr’, ‘Cc”. ‘Vv’, ‘Tt’, ‘Oo’. ‘Jj’, ‘Hh’, ‘Rr’, and ‘Ss’. The children also made a spring time booklet to enjoy at home.

Remember to send in your registration forms in for the next school year. Our Kindergarten program is quickly filling up.

Spring Break begins on Monday, 3/29 .

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Good morning,
What a wonderful day in the three year old class. Our focus this morning was on the letter ‘Rr’ and we reviewed the letter ‘Ss’ from last week. Today we used the long wooden blocks to make a bridge and we pretended that we were walking across a River. It was a lot of fun to reinforce the letter ‘Rr’ in this play but the added element was the balancing we had to do as we actually walked on the long wooden blocks. We realized our sense of balance improved as we repeated our walks.

The children also worked on counting to the number six. To reinforce this skill, the children made number flip charts. They should have this activity in their backpacks as well as the letter ‘Rr’ poster which they made this morning.

Enjoy the weekend with your family .

The children had Music with Mrs. Jones this morning. They are working on the Spring Program. How fun! We reviewed the letter and sound for ‘Ss’. The children made a very simple picture book for the letter ‘Ss’. Invite them to ‘read’ the booklet for you tonight. The children reviewed number skills, and we made the first part of our butterfly wings. We will finish them up and go ‘flying’ like a butterfly in the gym early Friday morning.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Good morning,
The children had Computer this morning where we practiced our mouse skills by drawing kites and other spring themed items. Back in the classroom we focused on letter recognition using lettered kites, and we followed up with a kite booklet . We read a silly story about an imaginary and funny little Leprechaun.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

Today the children focused on counting skills. We added counting dots to the tails of our kites to show given numbers and sums of simple groupings.
We did a science experiment involving light and eye sight. The children concluded that we need light – sunlight, artificial light – to see the world around us. Ask them about the experiment. It was a lot of fun.

Registration information for Kindergarten went home with your child today.

Enjoy this beautiful weather!
