Busy, Busy, Busy

We have been busy, busy getting ready for our annual art show.  Our students are becoming familiar with the works of Eric Carle.  Ask your child what an author is and what an illustrator does.... they are so smart!


This week we are reading A House for Hermit Crab, Mister Seahorse, and 10 Rubber Ducks.


 We have also been talking about time, the months of the year, and first, next, and last.  The kids are so excited to learn these new concepts.


I'll be posting pictures later this week. Talk to you soon!

A Look At Our Week!

This week the students read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, The Grouchy Ladybug, and The lonely Firefly. During our center time your child worked on their pieces for their art show/ expo night.  We had a ball getting messy and doing new kinds of art projects.  We can't wait till April 5th to show off all of our talented young artists.


We also wanted to mention a note of thanks to the parents who donated the canning jars for our projects.  It is so great to have such wonderful parents!  We are so appreciative of all supplies given to our preschool.  

Keep working at home with letter recognition, number recognition, and for our early readers, keep practicing. Our rhyming skills are fantastic! We are so proud of our preschoolers.  Keep up the good work!

Here are Some of Our Latest Highlights!

Art Show Projects Have Begun!!

Over the next couple of weeks your child will be heavily involved in the creative process. Be sure to dress them appropriately in clothes that can withstand glue, paint, and markers.


Thanks for your help!

PS.  If anyone has access to any canning jars we still need about 20. 

Welcome Back!

We hope you had a great vacation. It was certainly nice to finally get some snow! Many friends have been eager to tell us all about their exciting vacations and excursions.  


Now that we're back we have been looking at the works of Dr. Seuss.  We love to rhyme!  Keep up the practice at home.  You can rhyme...anytime!


Starting next week, we will begin to explore the wonderful world of Eric Carle. In addition to his stories, we will be replicating many of his most famous pieces of art. We will save these works at school to be used for display in our annual art show to be held on April 5th here at the Underhill Preschool. Mark your calendars. Details will come home soon.


Also, just a reminder to check your child's folder for papers on a daily basis.  We will be sending home information on upcoming events as well as some "homework help" to assist you in helping your child learn how to write numbers.


Thanks for all you do!
Ms. Anya, Ms. Sue, & Ms. Amanda
