Reptile Week

Here is a look at our reptile week! After playtime and our morning routine review we learned all about reptiles! We learned that reptiles are cold blooded animals. They have scales and lay eggs. They have lungs to breathe and use the sun for heat. 

Our animal song is coming along great. This week we learned the reptile verse of course. They sound so cute singing it. Now they can sing 5 of the 7 verses of our longest preschool song of the year! (we have amphibian and insect week still to come). 

Take a look at our reptile art:








Table time! We have snack following lesson time and then we work on worksheets. We focused on the letter N this week. They also have worksheets about beginning sounds and finding reptiles. 








This week we are learning about amphibians! Stay tuned!

Fish Week

We are continuing our animal theme for the month of January. It is great to be back in school. We learned all about fish this week during our lesson time. 

We are continuing to work on the alphabet with our letter of the week. We learn shapes, calendar, weather, colors, numbers, and more during our morning circle time. 

Elly is working on the letter of the week worksheet, letter M.

Birds and Our Christmas Party!


We only had two weeks of school in December before our Christmas break. We started our animal theme which we will be working on during January, too. In December we learned about mammals and birds. School starts again tomorrow, January 2nd, but take a look at our last week of December! 




We had a fun Christmas party our last day before the break. We ate cookies under the Christmas tree, went fishing for letters, played pin the star on the Christmas tree (hilarious), and wrapped the presents we had made for our parents.
