PreK4 eNews

After learning about the life cycle of frogs, we decided that God is just so creative!  He made frogs to lay eggs, tadpoles hatch from these eggs, and these tadpoles grow legs and lungs, their tails shrink, and finally the tadpoles become frogs!

Next week, we will review the letters and letter/sounds we have learned. 
Look for opportunities to reinforce these important pre-reading skills at home!  Ask your child what sound he/she hears at the beginning of family members’ names, or what sound is heard at the end of Sonic or Wal Mart, or possibly what letters/sounds make the small words “up” and “pig”.  All the children are making progress and we are proud of their hard work!

Continue to practice those Easter poems at home!  On Wednesday, March 14, each child will say the poem.  Teachers will select 3 children to, then, recite the poem in front of a small panel of judges.  This group of judges will choose class representatives. We completely understand this can be a little intimidating for some children.  However, this is a wonderful opportunity for students to experience public speaking.  We strongly encourage you to work with your child at home on the poem.  We have found when they know the poem well, they are much more confident in reciting it in front of a group.
