Leprechaun Traps!

By -
Happy St. Patrick's Day!

The Preschoolers made leprechaun traps today to catch the pesky leprechauns that will be making havoc in our classrooms this weekend! We hope we can catch some! 
Check out our traps on Monday!







Last week we celebrated Love to Read week and Dr. Suess's Birthday by wearing our pajamas and slippers! We read some great stories like Horton Hatches an Egg, Cat in the Hat, Cat and the Hat comes Back, Green Eggs and Ham. We also celebrated by enjoying some cinnamon rolls we made as well!


We continue to learn about Space and planets! Here is some astronauts getting ready for take off!



Preschoolers have also started to work with Mrs. Nicole on Mondays and Fridays. Mrs. Nicole comes in and teaches us different ways to help regulate our bodies, breath and calm down, and be just right in our classroom space. She also takes the preschoolers that will be going into Kindergarten next year for some more tailored one on one instruction. We have been having a blast learning different ways to move in our classroom, as well as different ways to calm down our bodies!


And lastly, Cooper brought in a very special share that he made on Wednesday. He and his grandfather made some delicious maple syrup and he brought some in with some doughnuts for a special treat! Thank you!

Southworth Park We've taken advantage of the beautiful weather that we've had over the past couple of Tuesdays and have hiked to Southworth Park for fun and adventures.  Ms. Beth, our outdoor educator, has built a fire with the kids, and we've made popcorn and hot chocolate. The kids have enjoyed digging in the dirt, finding worms, building fairy houses, playing tag and so much more.  It's always enjoyable to read books and eat snack up there too. A few of the second graders even joined us one day.
