US Grade Preschool
In these preschool classes we will sing our welcome song, go over the day of the week, weather and what we should wear with that kind of weather. We will have a weekly letter/letter sounds, shape, number, wiggle dance, simple addition, color, theme (ex. community helpers, animal, etc.), science/social studies topic, patterns & puzzles, healthy food (ex. banana, zucchini, mushroom, etc.) and story time. Students will learn through sing-along songs, action/movement play, listen to a story, and will be asked guided/simple questions about content. As a teacher and parent I like to keep these classes super energetic, positive, and fun. Each day we will go over a concept a little at a time through out the week; reviewing and practicing to really understand that concept. This way we can practice a lot without getting board or frustrated. Daily lessons will be paced with the overall pace of the students. If we need to slow down to better understand a concept we will do so, if we need to speed up because everyone understands the concept we will do so. We will be moving throughout class so please have a safe area to be able to jump, skip, etc. around. If your child is unable to move around for whatever reason I will show "chair movements"; they can do movements with their arms so everyone can join the fun.

Parental Guidance
We will be moving throughout class so please have a safe area to be able to jump, skip, etc. around. If your child is unable to move around for whatever reason I will show "chair movements"; they can do movements with their arms so everyone can join the fun.
For the counting manipulatives, make sure it is something that is not a choking hazard for your child.
Please note that most play dough brands contain Gluten and should be avoided if there is any risk that your child may consume it or make contact with their mouth while playing with it. You can purchase or make Gluten Free play dough at home.
Glue and scissors should be done with the supervision of a parent to ensure that no glue is consumed or any cuts from scissors.

Glue sticks or Glue will be used for outside of class activities and possibly in class at different times. Please have a safe space to move around as some of the learning activities we dance/ have movement to them.
