Welcome to Pre-K!: Marvelous Week!

Good afternoon! I hope this finds you having a great Friday! We had a marvelous week filled with mice, muffins, math, money, magnets and metal! We now have a rice table that if filled with metal items, and the children are using a magnetic wand to find the metal items that are hidden in the rice! It's a hit!
We also read many books by Laura Numeroff, including: If You Give a Moose a Muffin, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, If You Take a Mouse to the Movies, If You Take A Mouse to School, and even 10 Step Guide to Living with Your Monster! These are very popular books with your children! We did a muffin taste test, some math with (paper) muffins, and even have a counting activity with a muffin tin.
In between all of our fun lessons, I tested your children. I am so excited to give you the results at our conferences over the next 2 weeks! You will be/should be so proud of your children- they are learning so much!
February will bring a lot of excitement, so be sure to check out the February newsletter/calendar that will go home next week!
One little piece of housekeeping before the pictures: please encourage your children to open their own containers/bags/drinks when you are at home with them. They need to start practicing these skills for next year! Also, PLEASE send spoons/forks/napkins in your children's lunch boxes....the teachers like to eat during lunch too! :) Thanks!!
Enjoy the pictures!
