Day to Day<br />

on the Lower campus…<br />

tK:<br />

Along with the busy bustle <strong>of</strong> the holiday activities, the<br />

shining stars <strong>of</strong> TK have been really busy learning literacy<br />

and math skills in many fun-filled ways. As they complete<br />

their “must-do contracts” each week, they have been<br />

identifying beginning, middle, and ending sounds in<br />

words, listening for and making up rhyming words, and<br />

writing lots <strong>of</strong> words by listening for the different sounds<br />

that make up the words they want to write. As for math,<br />

they have been copying and creating patterns, writing<br />

and ordering numerals, and solving story problems.<br />

PK:<br />

one <strong>of</strong> the favorite units in Pre-K is<br />

Beary Good Friends. <strong>The</strong> children love<br />

to explore and experience the world<br />

<strong>of</strong> make-believe. We decorated, laced,<br />

and dressed some very creative bears.<br />

<strong>The</strong> children read many bear stories and<br />

learned bear songs. <strong>The</strong> highlight <strong>of</strong> our<br />

Bear and Bb Week was sharing the day<br />

with our Teddy bears and having a<br />

Teddy Bear Picnic on our playground.<br />

<strong>The</strong> kindergarten classes were very busy getting ready for<br />

their Thanksgiving program which was held in november.<br />

<strong>The</strong> children performed many new songs and poems that they<br />

learned. <strong>The</strong> kindergarten classes enjoyed rehearsing together<br />

daily, as they got ready for the performance. in addition, the<br />

children had fun preparing their versions <strong>of</strong> native American<br />

and Pilgrim costumes.
