Welcome back to a brand-new school year! We’re excited to kick off September with our Pre-K and Preschool Classes, which are filled with new and exciting things.
Here's a look into what our Pre-K's have been up to! Time with Jesus A few weeks ago, we started diving into the Bible, discovering its rich stories that beautifully illustrate God’s love for us. The children learned that the Bible is divided into two parts—the Old Testament and the New Testament. Written by many people, it was God who inspired them to write these timeless messages. Understanding that the Bible is true and serves as God’s love letter to us was a touching and meaningful experience for the class. Unit Study: Emotions We've been exploring the theme of emotions. The children learned we can spread happiness by sharing love, joy, patience, kindness, gentleness, and self-control. This is especially important as we make new friends and adjust to the school year. STREAM Activities: We are excited to dedicate Tuesday and Thursday mornings to exploring with the kids. Here are some of the fun things we've been up to: S: Experimented to see what keeps apples from turning brown. T: Played apple-themed Boom cards on iPads. R: Programmed BeeBots to move on a mat. E: Built towers using apple chunks and toothpicks. A: Created sun-catchers using crayon shavings. M: Practiced number matching with dice rolls. Our classes have had an incredible few weeks of learning, discovery, and fun! We can’t wait to continue this journey together and see what amazing things our little learners will achieve next. Stay tuned for more updates and have a wonderful weekend!
