Blog for the week of December 13 and 15
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!!
Winter is finally here! We are hoping to be able to go out and play in the snow if it warms up a bit, so get those boots, snow pants, hats and gloves ready!!
We are concentrating on Christmas for the last week and a half of preschool for the year 2016.
Today we had trees to decorate and jingle bells to play with on our tables in the morning. We chose a name out of a stocking before we planned to play. We made ornaments out of homemade dough and fished for candy canes in small and large group. On Thursday, we will paint with bows and wrap up some stars in yarn during table time. We will make "gingerbread" houses out of graham crackers and play some games with our jingle bells.
Jesus Time- This week we are listening to the story of Jesus' birth and practicing our part for the Christmas service this Sunday. Please sign up for a service if you have not yet done so. We will also have a practice this Saturday from 9-11 am. Please make every effort to be there. You can take care of some last minute shopping while they practice :).
Books for the week- All sorts of Christmas books! If your family has a favorite, you could share it if you'd like!
The children did pick names. They came home with a slip, just in case it gets lost, here are the names-
Sofia should get a gift for John Paul.
John Paul should get a gift for Grant.
Macy should get a gift for Anna.
Anna should get a gift for Jonah.
Noah should get a gift for Zoey.
Zoey should get a gift for Molly.
Molly should get a gift for Evan.
Brighan should get a gift for Macy.
Evan should get a gift for Brighan.
Brooklyn should get a gift for Sofia.
Jonah should get a gift for Brooklyn.
Grant should get a gift for Noah.
Good luck shopping! A small gift, no more than $5.
Have a blessed week!

Three year old preschool blog for the week of December 6th and 8th
Up, up and away!!
We are talking about and exploring with superheroes this week! We began the day playing with superhero lairs (thanks to Mrs. Dostal) and playing with superheroes in the clouds and making superhero puzzles. On Thursday, we'll play with kryptonite slime and make ourselves a cape.
We are talking about the sound and shape of Ss.
Some of the KDIs we are emphasizing this week are-
Cooperative play: Children engage in cooperative play- With all the superheroes available to them, our friends who never played superheroes before are giving it a try and making scenarios all their own!
Phonological awareness: Children identify distinct sounds in spoken language.- Like the letter Ss.
Gross-motor skills: Children demonstrate strength, flexibility, balance, and timing in using their large muscles.- We are using our big muscles to kick down cardboard blocks, throw paper wads at a sticky masking tape web and finding kryptonite rocks outside.
Jesus Time- This week we are learning about Mary finding out that she was going to be the mother of Jesus. She humbly accepted what the Lord said and followed His will. God give us to the strength and ability to do the tasks He has placed in our lives!!
Books of the Week- "Brave Irene" by William Steig, "The Amazing Spiderman: The Big Top Mystery" by Kraft, Severin and Norem.
Your children have been memorizing a speaking part and a song for the Christmas service. Please sign up for what service you would like to attend at the following link. I will also have a paper sign up at school if you would prefer.

We will also be drawing names on Thursday. Please bring the gift, $5 limit, to school on Tuesday, December 20th.
See you Wednesday at the Outdoor Adventure Center at 10am! Should be fun!!
Have a super week with your super kids!!
