Grandmother's Glasses

The preschool students have done a great job learning the fingerplay that we say each morning before we eat our snack. We wait until everyone has their snack and then we say.......


These are grandmother's glasses

This is grandmother's hat, this is the way she folds her hands and puts them in her lap.

These are grandfather's glasses, This is grandfather's hat.

This is the way he folds his arms just like that!

Ask your child to say this fingerplay for you at home!! It's very entertaining.

Clean up is always interesting!

This morning we read the book White Rabbits Color Book. It's a story about a rabbit that mixes red, yellow, and blue to make other colors. After we read the book, we got out the fingerpaints and mixed colors ourselves. Whether we used our fingers or paint brushes, the colors were beautiful.

We have liftoff!!

The school year is underway and we have had a great first two weeks. The morning classes have worked on some colorful collages while learning how to use glue. They make a cheerful addition to our classroom.

The afternoon pre-k class has been busy making name necklaces, playing math games, and writing numbers and letters. The biggest excitement in the afternoon is the opportunity to play on the playground with the kindergarten and first grade class.

Next week we will start our Community Helpers theme in pre-k and our Cookie theme in preschool.

Ready to Launch!

The classroom and teachers are anxiously awaiting the arrival of preschool and pre-k students tomorrow for the first day of classes. It's going to be a great school year!
