Week Review

The students are doing great in PreK3A! Hurray!

We reviewed the circles.
We had a lock down drill.

We introduced triangles. The students traced and colored a triangle. We looked for triangles in the room. The students sponge painted triangles to make a jack-o-lantern. We discussed foods that are shaped like a triangle. The students made a fall tree with triangles as the trunk and the leaves. We counted triangles.

We introduced pumpkins and the color orange. We picked a pumpkin in a pretend pumpkin patch in our room. We learned the 5 Little Pumpkins Song. We watched a few Halloween  song videos; 5 Little Pumpkins, Halloween Shark, and Down By The Bay Halloween. We counted pumpkins. The students glued the 5 pumpkins on a gate.


 Coloring helps build eye hand coordination and fine motor control. We ask the students to do their best.


We will practice for a firedrill every month.  Please reassure your child we are just practicing so we know what to do. 
We will introduce Lock down drill later. The students will sit quietly on the floor in the dark.  We will practice every month. 


Every day we try to read a story to the class. The students love the stories. Sharing stories may  help your child hear words and sounds, provides some quiet time, and introduces them to letters, words, and print. You can ask questions that happen in the story. It is good time to cuddle.
We read The Perfect Pumpkin, Ther Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed Some Leaves, and Falling Leaves.
