Getting Settled in Pre-K 1!

Hello Everyone,

Our first full week in Pre-K went by very quickly! We continue getting back into the school routine. We have been talking about Jack & Jill's School Rules which are We take care of our friends and teachers and we take care of our things.

Everyone did a wonderful job on Tuesday when we lost power. We did some movement to We Are the Dinosaurs and The Ants Go Marching by the light of the flashlight. We also made indoor shadows using the flashlight. Each child took a turn. This was very exciting and they asked me on Wednesday if we could do it again sometime.

We began our Reading Street Curriculum this week. Our first unit is Building Our Homes. Our Reading Street book was The House in the Meadow by Shutta Crum.

"Over in the meadow there's a spring wedding, with the couple's 10 best friends to celebrate. What's next? A house! 9 diggers, 8 masons, 7 carpenters, 6 well diggers, 5 roofers, 4 plumbers, 3 electricians, 2 painters, and 1 inspector show up with all their trucks and tools to build a new house. And when the couple and their friends have a house-warming party, a new baby comes, too!"
