Welcome to Preschool, Jaxon! And Happy Birthday, Gavin!

We had a great day at preschool today! 

We were so happy to have Jaxon join us today!

Our "Welcoming Committee" made sure Jaxon felt loved!

He has had a wonderful day!

We had our normal Circle Time just after breakfast.

Our circle time consists of prayer, pledge, Alphabet song,

Counting to 20 (for now), songs, letter and number boards, 

and a book! We normally do some type of participation game.

This is a lot of "sitting and paying attention", as you can imagine!

I do my best to switch these ways of learning up so that it stays 

fresh and fun for the kids.

This week we are getting in the swing of our School Time and

the whole schedule thing. In preschool, worksheets and pencils are not

the best way to learn day after day. Although we do use worksheets 

more and more as the year proceeds, there is MANY other ways of 

learning. Just know that if your child doesn't have actual work to take 

home each day, that does it mean they aren't learning very valuable skills!!

Today we sparked our senses with a shaving cream party! 

We wrote our names in it, shapes in it, and just squished it between our fingers!

We talked about how it felt in our hands, how we would clean it up and how it smelled! 

The kids had so much fun!!

Since it was raining, we had indoor play. I keep some toys 

out of sight so that in days like today we have some new things 

to play with. The girls loved the dishes and food!

And the boys loved the trucks and trailers and animals!

This afternoon we celebrated this guy:

Happy Birthday, Gavin Daley! 

We love you so much! 

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good. 

His love endures forever. Psalm 136:1

Welcome to Preschool, Jace, Sarah, Ivy, Adlyn, and Everley!!

What a glorious first 2 days of preschool!

We have welcomed Sarah, Jace, Ivy, Everley and Adlyn Mae!

They have done amazing! 

This group has quickly became best friends!!

We were having so much fun during circle and school time, we ran out of time to swim.

A popsicle helped cool us down outside, though!

Everyone did amazing at circle time! We learned new songs and played some games! 

Then it was time for a little schoolwork. 

This week we are working on our names. Recognition and spelling were our focus today! They all sat so well and paid attention! I was VERY happy!!

We had a busy morning, so it didn't take long for this to happen:

This morning we had a fun circle time! We did some schoolwork outside! I had written their names on the concrete in chalk. They had to go find their name and trace it to earn" some skittles!

They did great!

Then it was swim time and find big crazy bug time!!

Haha! 

Sweet kiddos! 

Train up a child in the way he should go, 

And when he is old he will not depart from it.

Kindergarten Tour 2015

We had a wonderful time on our 

annual Kindergarten Tour and Park Day!

The weather was absolutely perfect and

so was the company!

Be ready for a picture OVERLOAD!!

I love these kids so very much.

I hate the thought that they will be 

in "BIG" school in a few short months.

Sniff. Sniff.

Thank you for letting me be a part of y'all's lives.

With Love, Mrs Melea
