Week of 12/5-12/9

A book we all read this week: 

This week in both classes we read the book Froggy Get's Dressed. It is a great book about all the things we need to wear outside, filled with a lot of preschool humor. 

PK 3: 

In the PK3 group this week we played the drums with Mr, Hill, played with ramps and cars and continued to play family. We also spent some time figuring out how to get the icicles down from the house outside.

PK 4:

In the PK4  group this week the preschoolers created many things that can be hung as decorations. We also went on a name scavenger hunt and continued our interest in ramps.

 (Hanging decorations on the "tree.")

      

(Coming together after finding our names. Making connections of who has the same letters.)

Beware of Boogie Season:

Today a preschooler told me "it's winter, so that means it's boogie season." He is not wrong! We have been seeing a lot of illness, including boogers, coughing, fatigue and general unwell feelings. We have been reminding children to catch their sneezes and coughs in their "chicken wings," as well as wash their hands. We would love any support you all can offer around this at home. Helping your child remember to cover their mouths, use a tissue, and wash wash wash their hands. Also, while we want students here, and recognize that it is hard on families, rest is the best thing a child can have while they are sick.
