As I'm sure you've all heard, school is going to be canceled for the rest of the school year. To say we are devastated is an understatement. We want all of you to know how much we love you and your children. We are grateful for all of the moments we've shared and the light you've brought into our world. If you have any comments or concerns, PLEASE reach out to us at [email protected]. We want to hear from you! Also, we are looking into ways to maybe video call or chat with your children (we know how much they are missing preschool!) so we will update you as we figure it out. Writing TimeWrite your name(Names can be all upper case, or can start with upper case and then use lower case. You probably know where your child is at). Note: Children are at all different stages here. The goal is fine motor practice to develop the muscles needed for proper grip and control. Scribbling is OK, tracing is OK, and any variation of those are all OK! Write the date: 4-9-20Write the word of the day: MILK(These words will reinforce the weekly theme and provide practice writing letters that may not appear in your child's name. Parents can talk about the word and encourage a story or drawing.) Parents, your children may need help with these tasks, so feel free to practice along with them. Your child may need you to write their name or the date lightly and have them trace or copy it. Circle TimeToday we are talking about NUMBERS. And what better way to learn about numbers then to play games! Numbers are important to learn because they help us with so many things like counting, measuring and comparing. As we are counting and learning numbers, there is an order you follow. Just like the alphabet has an order. (Remember we sang the alphabet song to help us remember; you can sing if you want!) Numbers start with one (1); then as you count, you increase (add) in number value. Let’s count: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 13 - 14 - 15 - 16 - 17 - 18 - 19 - 20. How high can you count? Write the number in your journal. {extra fun fact} If you have nothing, you have zero (0).

Instructions For this game, copy the checklist below in your journal; can you count everything on the list?? If you forget the number order while counting, use your journal to make tally marks. Then count and write the number. (Tally marks help us keep track of numbers. Make a mark for each item you count. Remember, we used tally marks when searching for spiders and hearts around our classroom)
Daily Book JournalThree times a week, help your preschooler to pick out a book and read it together. Then, help your preschooler to create a journal entry using any of these same options from our book bag job.
Fun Activity Ideas If you are struggling to come up with fun and crazy things to do, look no further! 1. Take a virtual farm tour at this link: https://www.farmfood360.ca/ They have many farms to choose from and look at! 2. Decorate blown out eggs! Many people at our Preschool celebrate Easter and this is a fun activity you can do to make decorated eggs last forever. To blow out the eggs see this link: https://www.wikihow.com/Blow-Out-Eggs Decorate just like regular hard-boiled eggs (but be careful because they are fragile!) 3. Farmers grow a lot of crops! Look in your fridge and pantry and try to guess which food items came directly from a farm. Birthdays!Tomorrow (April 10th) is Carter's Birthday!!!!
