Literacy Parade


Dressing up as a book character was so much fun. The children had a great time seeing the older students on parade.



Here are the girls



some cute boys


Having a parade in the middle of the week with lots of crazy and cute costumes it's a great way to get ready for Halloween.
Pre-K was a great place to be today. The children were all excited to show off their costumes and share their book. All of the story characters were so cute, we had Power Rangers, Princesses, Doctors, Fairies, Firefighters, Thomas, Cat in the Hat, Poodles, Olivia and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!






We all got to read the story  "Go Away Big Green Monster"by Ed Emberley.
We chose shapes and got special scissors to create our own Big Green Monsters. They turned out so adorable and a little scary.
We had a parade to end the day, it felt great to see so many parents ready to cheer for the kids.
Thanks for a great day and have a safe Halloween.

Community

Pre-k is getting familiar with their community, we've been learning about different buildings and the people who work in these places. We are making our maps of our neighborhoods and talking about distance. 
Please take a moment to discuss things and people in our city with your child. 
------------------------------------------------

Que divertido es aprender acerca de nuestra comunidad y el barrio. Aproveche a converse con su hijo/a acerca de lugares y personas que viven y trabajan en la comunidad. Usamos y creamos mapas para conocer las distancias de ciertos lugares. Que divertido!!

Sink and float

Pre-k has been busy with science experiments. This week we got a chance to make predictions and prove our hipothesis about objects that sink or float. The children brought objects from home to test in the water. All of them got to classify their objects and record their findings.
