Back to School

It's hard to believe that it's already time to be "Back to School"!  A new school year brought some new faces to Sunflower Station Preschool.  Ms. Shalonda is our new 2's teacher.  She has been in childcare for over 4 years.  Ms. Shalonda is Ms. Temeka's (1's teacher) sister so she is already familiar with our school.  Mrs. Casey is now our 3's teacher in the mornings.  She is a certified teacher and taught at Blossomwood Elementary.  Mrs. Danielle will be starting this week in our Pre-Kindergarten room.  She is also a certified teacher who taught at Blossomwood Elementary.  We are so excited to have these new ladies as a part of our faculty!

Last week, the children talked about why we go to school and how important it is to be a good student.  We kicked off our "Letter of the Week" by reading "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom".  We started with the letter "A" as the children practiced writing and sounding out the letter, listed words that start with "A", and did a cute craft- "A is for Alligator".  

A is for Alligator!!

For snack, the children made a "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" snack to enjoy!

We mixed up our very own green playdough to better learn about the color green.   Some classes made patterns with triangles and others turned a triangle into a little person!  What a great first week back!
