 During the month of February, our Preschool themes include love, friendship, Presidents' Day and healthy teeth as February is Dental Health Month. Preschool 4 classes have been enjoying doing projects centered around families. We have discussed how families are alike and how they are different, family names, how a person can have several roles within a family, family trees, and how we work & play with our families. We have also talked about how Jesus was a part of a family. They are called the Holy Family. We have enjoyed making a family tree and journaling about our families. Preschool 3 students have enjoyed doing projects centered around friendship. We have discussed what it means to be a friend, that it's okay to have lots of different friends, and that Jesus wants us to be a friend to everyone. We have enjoyed making friendship chains and deciding what good friends do and what good friends don't do. Both classes have been keeping up with their letter projects. Preschool 4 students made an "O" out of little "o"s or Cheerios. They played a game with Ms. Kondracki, in which they had to identify either the long "o" or the short "o" sound. Students also used puffy paint to make a letter "P." P is a fun letter sound because it pops! We will use a quarter stamp to make a letter Q. Q is a special letter because it is almost always with the letter U. Preschool 3 students made an octopus for their "O" alphabet picture, which was perfect because we read a book about Olive the Octopus and all the things she liked to juggle that started with the letter O. We colored a large penny for our P picture. This was also perfect because we have been talking about Presidents and President Lincoln is on the penny. All classes have been learning about Presidents Day: a day for honoring Presidents past and present. We read a biography about President Barack Obama and we learned a lot about who he is as a person and what he does as the President. We all colored a picture of President Obama and said what we learned about him. We also learned about how an election works and different ways people can vote. In Religion class, Preschool 4 students have just finished a unit about how Jesus belonged to a family and so do we. Now we are leaning about Jesus' many friends and how we can be a friend. Preschool 3 students are focusing on all of the wonderful things God created, including people! God made the world and we need to take care of the world. God also made people and we need to take care of ourselves. |
