Imagination

Children in Pre-k are always using their imagination creating and building great projects with tools, boxes and blocks. We read a book called "Not a Box"then children got a chance to use their imagination and pretend that their box is something special.

here the kids are pretending that this box is a race car!

This is a castle for the princesses!




This is a train with a caboose and 

This box is taking a beating!

We are going out of space


The new center in pretend and play is our construction site where children build and repair things with the use of real and toy tools.

this is our new construction zone, where kids are busy building with real tools.

Watch me use this hammer and nail.

Don't forget to use your protective gear.

This is what our construction zone looks like.

We got a chance to build our name with wood like real engineers and architects. 

100 day of school

Kids had a good time counting and organizing their 100 items to count by tens.

Health week

Our Class has been learning about germs  and how they make us sick. We now know that a greatvway to stay healthy is by washing our hands!  We had a visit from Nurse Amy who showed us lots of tools that she uses in the clinic. 

We are having fun in our new pretend and play area of a Dr. Office.

Making shapes with our bodies

This has been a great week. We are learning about shapes, the children were able to create some cool shapes in the playground. To think that on Tuesday we made these and on Thursday it started snowing is hard to believe. 

What a beautiful day to make shapes with our bodies. This is a circle as you can see.

This rectangle took a lot of friends working  together! it looks awesome.



Our circle looks more like a pentagon, but it's still great.




The weather was so beautiful and warm that the sun made these students face down. What a great triangle.



What shape can you make with only 2 people? a triangle of course.

This is a fantastic rectangle!

5 senses

Humpty Dumpty helped us this week with our sense of hearing; using plastic eggs filled with different things to use as sound shakers was a great activity. The children got to shake them and then compare the sound they made, then grade them from loudest to softest. 

Talking about the 5 senses has been fun this week. We have done lots of experiments and learned to be aware of the world around us. Balloons were filled with rice, flour, water, beans and seeds, then the children had to match the same textures together; of course without looking in the bag.

we tasted things that were sour, sweet, salty and bitter for our sense of taste. We also smelled bottles and classified them into good smells and yucky smells.

The kids enjoyed touching our touch board with different textures on it.
