This week in preschool, the children did some counting and number recognition exercises with unifix cubes and number cards. They also practiced tracing the letter H and we talked about the sound it makes like in the beginning of the word house. The children made a penguin as we talked about some polar animals. In the atrium, the children are learning about the Altar area and the names of the items found on the altar. In the afternoon STREAM program, we continued our talk on polar and arctic animals by setting up an arctic scene and painting a polar bear picture using watercolor paint and salt to make it look like snowflakes.

As always, remember to let us know if your child will not be in. If they are sick, please report the symptoms (fever, cough, vomiting, etc.) Call 796-2320 or email amyplackowski@dogrschools.org
