This week we are discussing families. Today we drew pictures of our families and talked about jobs we help with at home. Also they chose a family member and we wrote about their job! In math we compared longer and shorter.
Swifton Preschool explored technology today by taking their own pictures.
In Preschool we are discussing our family! In literacy, we talked about the people in our family and how many members we have. In math we discussed the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We then used our frog counters to divide them into 3 different groups according to size!

We're learning about families this week. Toddlers put together their family pictures and glued them to paper. We learned some families only have one child, some have 2 or more, some have only brothers, some have only sisters and even some families have special family members that are no longer with us.
This week in pre-K we have been talking about open and closed shapes. We have also been talking about feelings. We've discussed how we have been feeling and what causes us to feel this way. We also demonstrated a straight line and then joined hands to make a circle to show open and closed shapes.
PreK has been building letters today! They are working hard on learning letters and letter sounds 🔤
