The Body Theme

We started off in February by celebrating Groundhogs Day! We made these cute groundhogs. 


This month we learned all about our body! We learned about our 5 senses and played a fun game where we had to use different senses to guess mystery items. I love watching the kids play this game! We made hands that taught us about the sense of touch. 






We had a fun Valentines Day party! We passed out valentines, played a punch the heart prize game and Valentines bingo. We frosted sugar cookies, played heart matching, and made Valentines. 







Outside of our monthly theme we are working hard on standard preK and kinder standards. Almost all of the preschoolers are reading now! Hurray! We continue to work on sounds, letters, numbers, shapes, names, and more. 




We had a fun time learning about different body parts and our body song. We learned about bones and organs and made posters to show all we learned. We practiced with our different body parts each time we met and we'll continue to review in hopes they will hold onto all they learned this month!

Animal Classification Theme

We are working hard on reading! We practice every preschool day on our reading levels. Oakley started reading this month too, hurray! We have a few working on letter recognition and sounds too. We do these one-on-one turns during puzzles and snack time. The kids are getting really good at puzzles too! 


 




Our monthly theme for January was animal classification. First we learned about mammals, then birds, fish, and reptiles. We had some fun crafts to do with each classification. We had fun learning the animal song too. 










We are still working on our names each preschool day as well. I'd like them to be kindergarten quality before moving onto spotlights for whiteboard practice. We are getting close!
