Three year old preschool for September 20 and 22

Happy Family Week!

This week we are talking about our family. Who is in our family, what we do with people in our family and that our family loves us!

The KDIs we are concentrating on this week are-

Reflection- Children reflect on their experiences- After free play, we look at what we planned and see if we stuck to our plan or changed our plan.

Moral Development- Children develop an internal sense of right and wrong.- Our Bible story this week deals with sin and its consequences.

Speaking- Children express themselves using language. On Tuesday, to plan play, the children pretended to talk on the phone- they had to say who they were talking to and what they planned to play, for example, "Hi, Mommy! I'm going to play trucks!"



Our Jesus Time this week is the story of Cain and Abel. This is a very tough story with difficult concepts for children to grasp. We heard the story of Adam and Eve's two sons who both brought offerings to the Lord, but with very different hearts. When God told Cain that his offering was not acceptable, he got so angry and jealous that he killed Abel. God still came to Cain to offer forgiveness if he was sorry (repentant) for what he had done. It seems Cain refused to repent and spent the rest of his life wandering the earth with a long time of grace to change his mind.

The books we are reading this week are, "Skidamarink: The 'I Love You' song", "Grandpa" by Barbara Borack, and "Tell Me Again About the Night I Was Born" by Jamie Lee Curtis.

Because of an activity day scheduled for Tuesday,October 4, we will not be having preschool on site that day. We are planning a field trip to Camp Killarney where Mrs. Dostal is camp director.  More information will be coming home along with a permission slip next week! More field trips are scheduled and more information about them will be coming next week also!

Have a great week!
Mrs. Schneck
