Games, games, games. We had a great time creating games of review. They will make great practice over the summer.
Here’s a fun story. I was instructing the children about the baseball number word game. I said, “Choose a team color. Make your coach to match! They will be awesome because ‘everything is awesome when you’re part of a team’!” Eli immediately picked up on that and sang, “EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!” Others joined in, “Everything is awesome when you’re part of a team!” Soon, half the class was singing the entire Lego song! It was awesome.
Times like this, I sit back and enjoy the ride.
Many times, Eli is the favorite. I watch as children wait for him to finally sit down, as to steal a place beside him, practically on his lap. It is the same in the afternoon class with Nash. This week I watched Clive jerking on his one arm and Miles tugging on the other. Patiently, Nash firmly stated, “DO NOT KILL ME!” And they all nestled down together in a scrunched little huddle on the carpet squares. Too funny!
We are getting lots done, while celebrating the last of the birthdays. We like to include the summer birthdays in our celebrations, to be sure everyone gets a chance to receive a birthday crown, and all that comes with that at school. We love our birthday traditions.
Our reading program will come to a close on Thursday. I need all readers and book lists by that day. If your child happens to be absent that day, please arrange for those to be turned in ahead of time.
Please locate your child’s frog preschool shirt. We will be wearing them for the program. It’s gunna be great! Can’t wait!
Splash Day will be on the 16th, a Thursday, the last day of class following the day of the program. All school times change for that day, as we all plan to meet 9:00-11:30. Please make these arrangements if your child is to attend. Thank you.
Have a great weekend. See you next week.
Much love and devotion,
