Impromptu Dance in Pre-K

With marginally low temperatures and a limited amount of time, another indoor recess was declared for Pre-K today. What to do with that extra energy??? The problem solved itself when one of our students pulled out a new harmonica from his backpack and began playing. Some kids dropped what they were doing and danced and danced!

Pre-K students celebrate Valentine's Day

Dear Families,

What fun to feel the happiness of young children exchanging valentines, and preparing for and enjoying a celebration this week! We made a good attempt at limiting the excitement factor, and spread our activities throughout the week ... decorating bags to collect valentines, mixing healthy muffin batter, not to mention the home preparation from families of the actual valentines. These were very much appreciated and enjoyed! Here are some pictures from snack time on Thursday, where we decorated our muffins and ate them up. The red objects on the "arrows" are grape tomatoes sliced diagonally and twisted to form a heart (if you use some imagination).

Dear Pre-K Families,

See you tomorrow!
