Notes From Rhonda

Today, We are working on the Letter "S". So we made snowmen, and we talked about different sizes, shapes,and features in snowmen. We had a snowball fight with marshmallows, Maria thought this was great fun. We also threw "snowballs" into a coffee can, and counted how many we could get in the can.

For computer work, Maria uses "Reader Rabbit" Preschool. She worked on patterns today and how to figure out how to get to the top of the mountain, by using different angles to get to the top. We read the "Snowy Day" We will be working a a "Lap book" this week on this book.

For the sensory table, this week, I used the packing peanuts.

For dramatic play, I set up a "office". I love listening to Maria's conversations with her stuff bears, and dolls, in the office, while they are "at work!"

    Aw thank-you for the nice comment! I somethimes think, I'm not doing enough for her in preschool. And then again sometimes I overwhelm her with too much!
