Reed making applesauce!!!

Week 2

This week we started our unit on Apples.  As I'm sure many of you read the note that went home on Thursday about our week and what we did.  We made applesauce which was probably the best I have ever had!  They did a great job mashing the apples that had been in the crockpot all morning.  We also made stained glass apples, painted with Apples, and number identification with apples and worms.  The kids also made their own eaten apple out of construction paper...they had to put the puzzle together before they glued it on their paper!  It was a fun week!

This week we have decided to extend our unit on Fall and talk more about the changing season and leaves.  We will be working on the letter L and number 2 this week!

It's homecoming this week!!!

Week 1 of Preschool

This week was very busy in our Wanamingo Preschool room!  We had so much fun learning about Chester Raccoon, The Kissing Hand, and Chester Raccoon and the Big Bad Bully!  We began learning the Kenyon Wanamingo Bully Pledge.  Bullying is not tolerated at Kenyon Wanamingo Schools.  All students in the Elementary will be saying the pledge on a weekly basis to remind us all that we should befriend others and not bully them.  The kids also helped me paint a large box which will be our make believe school bus! Thanks so much for all your generous donations of items that were on the tree outside our door!  I can't believe all the leaves are gone! 

It was a great week!  I hope the kids had as much fun as Ms. Betty and I did!  Have a great weekend!

If you haven't recieved an email from me yet please send me an email with your email address so I can get you on my list! 

Thanks much!
See you next week!

First Day of Preschool MTH Class

What a fun day!  We read the book The Kissing Hand by Audry Penn and learned how to sign "I love you" in sign language!! They all did so GREAT!  Ask them if they can sign it for you!  They also made their own Kissing Hand to bring home. 
At the sensory table they were able to use their hands to explore shaving cream and predict what color red and yellow make....orange!  They drew letters and pictures in their saving cream as well...what a fun activity!  They all wanted to know when it was their turn to try it!

Just a few reminders...

***Please send back the Green Parent Activity form you may have gotten on Open house night.

***Picture day is on Wednesday 9/14/2011. Come anytime during the school day since we don't               have preschool Wednesday.

*** I have also posted a few items for our Preschool Wish List outside our preschool room.  If there is anything you would like to donate take a look!  Thanks for all of your support!

Looking forward to the rest of the week!

Picture Day!!!

Picture day at KW Elementary is Wednesday, September 14th!!  We do not have preschool on Wednesday, but if you would like your child's picture taken you may come it at any time throughout the school day on Wednesday to have it taken.  I will be sending home the picture order form on Monday PM class and Tuesday AM class.  If your child attends KW Kids they will be able to bring them to get their picture taken as long as they have their form with them.

Thanks!
