We had a great first day in preschool!
Please take a few minutes to check out our day...
We all started our day with our first check-in...writing his/her name on a special piece of paper!
Some of us improved small motor control as we built with unifix cubes!
Our first day of preschool 2021 "head shots"...everybody say "cheese"!
Each friend picked a job for the first time today...
Briella and Mia chose table washer...
Cody and Andi chose custodian...
Micah chose custodian...
Mara chose messenger...
Lucas chose calendar helper...
Clare was our line leader...
While Oliver was our caboose...
Blair did a great job as door holder...
Emma was our snack helper...
Grant helped out as our bathroom monitor...
Thea began Jesus Time as our invocation leader...
Ellie was our lunch helper...
While Rylan chose librarian...
We enjoyed our first snack as a class...
We read/watched the book "The Kissing Hand" on the smartboard! We loved getting to hear all about little raccoon's first day of school and then compared it to our first day of school!
Then...woo hoo...we were so excited to go outside to the preschool playground!
Time for small groups (centers)!
With Mrs. Dose we improved small motor control and patterning skills as we placed cubes together in a pattern. Success for some was copying a pattern Mrs. Dose started. Success for others was finishing a pattern Mrs. Dose started. Success for other was starting and finishing a pattern on his/her own!
We improved spatial awareness and small motor control as we put puzzles together!
We improved large motor control, expressed creativity, and worked as a team as we built our house or the school with blocks!
With Mrs. Mudd we created a special first day of preschool art piece...look for it hanging in the hallway soon! While waiting his/her turn, we enjoyed coloring a picture of our theme verse for this year, John 20:21!
I am so proud of everyone! We did a wonderful job of following directions for our first experience with small groups with our new class!
Although our day included a lot of learning routine and at times felt rushed, we were still able to get some gym time in (to get those wiggles out) before lunch!
Run, run as fast as you can!!!
Lunch was a bit of a whirlwind...but all left with full tummies!
We are in the process of getting a new iPad...until then, Abram snapped a couple pics as our photographer with the iPod!
During Jesus Time today we learned that God created everyone of us. He knows everything about us...even when we make poor choices. But...we remembered that he always loves us. He loves us when were happy, sad, angry, scared, and even when we are being silly!
That's a wrap of day one...join us tomorrow for day two!!!
