Gross Motor

Spring is finally almost here! This means we will be outside more and more! (Yay!) However, before we begin playing at our preschool outdoor area and playground again, I thought I’d share some pictures of our time spent in the gym over the past couple of months. Students practiced balancing, improved hand-eye coordination, used gross motor skills, and engaged in active play.

Dental Health Month

Since February is dental health month, we have been learning about the importance of taking care of our teeth. Here are some of the fun activities we’ve done to celebrate dental health month: 1) our dramatic play area is now a dentist office, 2) we’ve flossed away food in our teeth (string as floss, Playdough as food, and Legos as our teeth), 3) we’ve brushed “teeth” using real toothpaste and toothbrushes, and 4) we’ve had a pediatric dentist visit our AM class and a local dental hygienist visit our PM class. There will be more to come this week, too, so keep a lookout for more pictures! Here are some pictures so far:

Learning Through Play

I’m so happy to be back teaching in preschool after having my baby boy in November! Since I’ve been back, we’ve done many exciting things! Here is a peek at what we’ve been up to in pre-k!
