The Start of a New School Year in Mixed Age!

Good Afternoon Jack and Jill Families!

We had an amazing first week of school! I am so thankful to have been able to start off my first year at Jack and Jill  with all of the wonderful children we have this year.  This week our theme in the classroom was our families. The children have really loved being able to look at their family pictures on the wall throughout the day, and have especially loved telling myself and Mrs.Haynes about them! Everyone is doing an incredible job getting used to the schedule and routines as well. 

Math centers this week included sorting fruit and corresponding colored bowls.

Discovery center consisted of over sized magnetic balls and rods. Everyone really enjoyed these!

Sensory play this week was beach themed. It was filled with sand, seashells, blue and green stones (or treasure some of the children might say!), funnels, and shovels. This will be in the sensory area for the remainder of September and will be replaced next month.

The art center was a hit this week. We had small houses that the children were able to color,
