Construction Zone

We have a construction zone with real hammers and nails.  (Thank you to the parents who made donations!). The kids are having a ball!  Lots of coordination is required.  I have been hearing good language and negotiation taking place too.  What a fun way to learn!

Thank you to this year's first Parent Volunteers!

The last couple of days we have had two parents come to help with a craft.  Mrs. W has been away, sick, so the extra couple of pairs of hands were really appreciated. Thank you so much!

                  

    

Fine Motor Skills

We have been working hard at improving our fine motor skills in Pre K.  Children need strong muscles in their fingers, hands and upper body before they are able to print easily.  Activities such as gluing, and cutting help to build strong fingers and hands.

We have been learning the proper way to hold our scissors.  Parents may want to practice this with their children at home.

Notice how some children have the technique and some are almost there.  We will gently help the children hold the scissors properly when we see the wrong grasp.

It is Spirit Week at school, this week, and today we dressed as twins.  Two of my students came dressed as Twin Princesses!

                   

Happy Birthday!
