Week 1
Our curriculum is created by Frog Street Threes, it builds on itself with different skills and will continue into Pre-k 4. I am looking forward to starting it with the kiddos on week 3 of school. Each one has a theme, different letters, numbers, shapes, and colors that are the focus for that week.
Snack is provided by the school each day. It will have milk and a cracker of some kind. Please feel free to send in a water bottle! We can refill at the bottle filling station just down the hall.
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns at any time! We can always set up a meeting, phone call, or email back and forth.
During the semester if your child has an appointment or isn't feeling well, please let me know and I will mark them absent for the day.
Family Pictures
We will be talking about our families and who is in our families. Please send in a Family picture, or email one to me and I will print it here.
Growing together! 3 Year Old Learning Goals for Quarter 1
- Uses drawing, scribbling, letter like forms, random letter strings and/or dictation to express thought and ideas.
- Places objects in one to one correspondence during play situations (e.g., gives each doll a plate in the housekeeping area).
- Interacts with familiar adults with varying degrees of comfort.
- Follows basic health practices (e.g., puts dirty tissues in trash, washes hands, covers mouth when sneezing) with occasional reminders.
Outside
As it gets colder we will go outside as long as it is above a feel like temperature of 27 degrees, and there is no snow or ice on the ground. We will not go out if it is raining, so we won't need any umbrellas. If they wear rain boots to the school, if you send another pair they can change when they get to the classroom for easier indoor play.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
