Preschool News February 28-March 4

Dear Parents:

This week we will study another type of transportation: vehicles that can fly in the air such as airplanes, helicopters, and hot air balloons.  The students will make their own paper airplanes and will experiment with the design of a paper airplane and how far it can travel.
 Next week we will continue our unit on transportation by studying boats and ships.

 
The students have been discussing about time and the clock. They talked about the importance of time. Most of them explained that the clock lets us know when it is time for bed.  

The students have been working hard with their zoo phonics letters and sounds; and this week were introduced to reading two letter words such as: is, at, up, etc.. It was very amazing to see the pre-k students grasp this idea with ease. Please be sure to practice the sounds of the letters at home!  We have also started to introduce writing of  lower case letters and focused on l and i this week.  Children should always begin their letters at the top because it helps them to visually structure the rest of the letter
