Hello Preschool Families

I hope you all have a lovely summer -

If your child is moving on to Kindergarten I hope they all enjoy their new school and all the wonderful adventures that Kindergarten holds.  I will miss them all!!!  Come back to visit if you are at MBS.

If your child is coming back to preschool I hope you have a wonderful summer and I can't wait to see them back in the fall.

Thank you ALL for all the support throughout the school year.

For the month of May we will be talking about insects and bugs.  We will learn the body parts of an insect and what makes insects different than bugs.  We will learn some new insect/bug vocabulary words.  We will watch a few educational you tube clips to help teach us about this topic. 

 

This week we are just touching upon the topic and learning what makes an insect.

 

We will have a few new toys out to play with – k'nex, magnet dress up dolls, bristle blocks, alphabet transformers, felt board and felt pieces, and of course magnet tiles.

 

We will have sand with letter sea shells and tools to play with.  Also we will have water beads and bugs in the water tables.

 

Our dress up area will be food, dishes, and babies.  We will build bug homes in our block area.
