Magic In Preschool
fairy tales
Hello Parents!
Math: by making fairy dust the kids will learn colors, and measurements. and by making the swords they will be learning shapes and also measurements.
Science: by making the caramel apples the kids will see how one thing can transform into something else.
History: the way we are going to teach about the kings and queens is by doing different activities and acting out the parts and what they did during everyday life.
We will be taking your children to see peter pan the play this week, we will be sending out permission slips and papers if any parents are interested in chaperoning the trip. And after the children get to see a play we thought it would be a fun idea to let the children act out their own! each child will be picking their favorite fairy tale and putting on a show for the rest of the class, parents are more then welcome to come watch!
Tinkerbell
Tinkerbell is the character most focused on for fairy dust, she uses it to make her fly.
Kings and Queens
Learning about how everything and everyone was ruled by a king and queen at one time, and how some places still are.
Snow White
this is the fairy tale focused on when they make the apples because snow white is where the "poison apple" came from.
