Police visit

On Tuesday and Wednesday we were visited by Sunset Hills Police Officers! They taught us about safety issues including avoiding strangers, crossing streets safely and calling 911 when true emergencies arise. We also learned many tips for Halloween safety.  The kids were able to get inside a real patrol car! We continued the safety lesson in the classrooms by utilizing the "Eddie Eagle" video on gun protection.  In addition to the excitement of the police visit, we  introduced the children to the new Learn Pads! They enjoyed trying various apps and practicing the number "7" on the tablets. The letter of the week was "C" for First Year Students and "F" for PreK.

Orange Day


As you can see in the picture, we highlighted the color Orange at the end of the week. We wore orange clothes, we talked about what things are orange, and used orange in our crafts. Pre-K kids worked on the letter E and 1st year kids learned the letter B. All classes studied the number Six and we continued our Music lessons. In Religion we heard that it is good to have fun times through Christ. Picture Day was at the beginning of the week - proofs should arrive by the end of next week.

Music Time

This week we started our music sessions with Miss Janelle. We had fun singing and learning new songs.  In Religion we talked about treating others with kindness and how we would like to be treated. The 1st Year classes learned about shapes and made a shape book.  We started on the alphabet, of course with the letter "A"!  With numbers we have moved on to the number Five.  We also made a fall tree. The Pre-K children are also learning the number Five and are up to the letter "D".  They painted apples at the easel and made scarecrows and owls.
