The nursery students are having so much fun at school ! Friendships are forming as they learn the rules for school, which includes taking turns and sharing.
This week in class we are completing the I Am Special Book. The children are learning that God created the world and they are a very special gift from God. Each and every student is a precious miracle!
We begin our color unit this week . We will start with the color RED. Please ask your child’s teacher if you need an additional copy of the color day schedule. On red day, the children are asked to wear red. We will eat a snack of red apples and paint red at the easel. We will create a red happy face from our red painting. We will also make red Clifford ears and read a special Clifford story.
We are starting to discuss the four seasons and the signs of the seasons. We have a wonderful movement to music song called The Four Seasons. This song helps children learn to keep a beat while also learning about the signs of the seasons.

Stories: Clifford the Big Red Dog by Norman Bridwell, Big Red Barn by Margaret Wise Brown and Big Red Apple by Tony Johnston.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful children with us and have a blessed week!
