    The Preschool would like to welcome Mrs. Elizabeth to our family! She has been a substitute over the last few months and will be with us the rest of the school year! We are so excited to have her! Welcome! :)     The preschoolers have been exploring all sorts of dramatic play with new clothing and objects in the kitchens as well as with a "cave". Mrs. Nichols' room made some fun foamy paint with shaving cream and glue the other day and made some snowman in celebration of our snow day! (Very neat stuff to try at home!) And in Ms. Caitlin's room, the preschoolers have been learning about hibernation and hibernating in a cave we painted!       Some fun dress-up play! cool dudes!     Some reminders ! *Returning preschool families for next year- PLEASE fill out next year's registration form and return it to your classroom teacher by February 1st! *Also please remember if...

  The past few weeks the Preschoolers have been diving right into all the fun activities happening in the classrooms. Mrs. Nichols classroom has been working with mirrors and light. Also they have been building up a storm with a variety of materials. In Ms. Caitlin's class, preschoolers have been mixing colors and working on what animals live in warm weather and what animals live in the cold climates.                                                                 Some fun in dress-up!                       Mirrors and lights!

Happy New Years and Welcome back! Hope everyone had a restful and relaxing break. The Preschoolers seem all rested and ready to kick off the second part of the year with a bang!   Today with the warmer temperatures outside it was perfect for making snowman! We did A LOT of snow-persons, snow-bear, snow-animal building!     Team work always works!   Taking a break... snow building is hard work!   Yay for our beautiful Snow person!!       We also got to play with snow INSIDE as well, which was a treat! We added some animals that we thought lived in the snow or colder areas.    

Happy Holidays!

  Thank you to all the parents and volunteers for helping us make the Craft day such a success! We had such a great turn out and the kids made some super sweet and cute gifts to share with their families. They really enjoyed the whole day. Thank you again! :)       The preschoolers have been having fun in all the snow we have gotten this winter so far! We love sledding, making snowballs, penguin sliding!             From the Preschool Team we wish you all a happy and healthy holiday! :) Have a great vacation!

Turn-Over Wednesday!

I hope everyone had a restful and wonderful Thanksgiving last week! After a long weekend and an Ice day yesterday, we did some fun cooking to kick off Wednesday and some train building to travel into Thursday!! We also got started making our letter G with glitter and glue for the letter of the week. The preschoolers loved seeing what would pop up after they covered their glue with beautiful glitter. Using an apple peeler to make our apple turn-overs! Very fascinated that it makes the apples into spirals! :)    Taking turns using the peeler. LOTS of glitter and glue on the preschoolers and the paper!     Preschoolers have been doing a lot with marbles and shoots as well as trains and building tracks. They are great builders and problem solvers.     *Some important reminders**** - Friday Dec.16th is our holiday crafting day! Please let you teacher know if you are able to help out that day with any craf...
