December 9-13, 2019

We are full of Christmas spirit in Pre-K!

The boys and girls were so excited to celebrate St. Nicholas Day last Friday!






In science this week, we learned about magnetism! The students made Christmas trees out of Magna-Tiles and used magnet wands to attach bells to the trees.






The boys and girls completed a reindeer directed drawing activity. Look at these amazing artists with their creations!



We even had time to learn about subtraction! Can you believe it? Pre-K students know how to subtract!



Hard work also requires time to play and dance out some wiggles!




Looking ahead:

  • The Christmas show will take place on Wednesday, December 18, at 6:00 pm. Students should arrive dressed in their white shirts with a skirt or pants and dress shoes at 5:30. Please bring your child to their classroom and then get your seat in the gym. It will be a packed house! Please make sure your child uses the bathroom before you come.
  • Grandparents Day is Thursday, December 19.
  • The last day of school before Christmas break is Friday, December 20. Please return your child's pizza lunch form if you have not already done so. 
  • Classes resume on Tuesday, January 7.

Have a great weekend!

Hawaiian Christmas day..."


We keep working hard on our Montessori lessons!





We even had time to learn about hibernation in science class! Listen to the boys' and girls' advice for the animals:
