Dear Parents and my Classroom Cuties !!!

During the past week we were busy reviewing the Letter "F". We had fire fighters join us for a special show and tell circle. Our treasure chest had to grow from a small shoe box to a giant  container thanks to our young explorers. Our once shy volunteers turned into excited and eager participants who can't wait to show off their newly discovered treasure to their friends. Thank you so much for your support and encouragement.  

Furthermore, we have discussed the differences between circle and an oval. We practiced creating a circle donat out of play dough and stretching it into an oval shape.  

 

 

 

 

 

Here are some glimpses of our show and tell :)

 

  

Stopping for a moment to the smell the " F F F Flower." Sounding out the letters is a very important component in spelling and reading.

 

Practicing to form the proper structure of the letter "F" 

Remembering to form the letters from top to botton.

  

Practicing writing while maintaining our three finger grip, well done!!!

 Number 1 was on our next agenda. We discussed 0 and 1, it's relationship to each other, as well as concepts of more and less.

With the help of our

"Thing 1" we were able to once again reinforce the concept by spying it out of the crowd :)

  

 

 

Pre School is a great place to learn ABCs and 123s, but it is also an important building block in social development. We learn and encourage to share personal space and toys, we build independence as well as self confidence and courage to explore and experiment while learning.

During lunch someone spilled water while pouring and began to cry. The 

following day I brought one of my kids' favorite books about pete the cat and his brand new shoes. No matter what he stepped into, he kept walking along and singing his song, still loving his shoes. It's ok to explore, it's ok to spill, make mistakes, and learn on the job as long as we get up and try againg!!! The following day, someone spilled once more, remembering the story and speaking out loaud he said " it's ok, i'll pore a little less next time, i am not gong to cry, while cleaning up the mess. The book was a great hit!!!

Our Birthdays are always so much Fun!!!

Happy Birthday Manya!!!

 

We take turns helping each other prepare a delicious  Birthday snack.
Mesuring, sequencing,
counting,
pouring,
mixing,
and discussing it all!!!

 

 

 

 

We share our yummy finished product.

We sing and dance, give tzedaka and give out the goodie bags!

 

Till next week, 

with love ,

Morah Rebecca :) 

 Can't wait for the "show and tell" for the letter "E" on Wednesday.

P.S. We are starting a landing library where children can borrow books home at their leisure. If anyone has any books they do not need, that are age appropriate and in good condition, we would love to have it to expand our library.

On Monday we discuss what everyone did over the weekend, if you happen to snap a picture of it (if it's not too much trouble) email it to me on Sunday so that we can have an actual visual, to further our discussions,

thanking you in advance,

Morah Rebecca :)
