WHEN DO THINGS HAPPEN AT SCHOOL?

The preschool day is full of events. It is important for your child to know when things happen at school. Routines help students feel safe and secure because they know what is coming next and what is expected.

Hickory , Dickory , Dock

We had a blast with a mouse this week! The children took turns placing the mouse up and down the clock. We talked about roman numerals and we listened to the clock as it chimed. The students chanted Hickory, Dickory , Dock as they moved the mouse up and down the clock.

Hearing and using rhyme, rhythm, and repetition helps children develop early literacy skills.

P. E.

The children used their hand eye coordination skills this week. Each child had a paddle and a balloon. The class had to throw the balloon up and hit it with the paddle.

Handwriting Without Tears - Roll A Dough Letters

Play doh was a hit this week! The children rolled out long lines and short lines to make letter F. Roll A Dough letters are a way for children to develop fine motor skills as they learn letters.
