Spring

Hello Families!

We spent the week learning all about community helpers! We talked about  many people in the community who we encounter everyday and also discussed what we want to be when we grow up. There were a lot of votes for Police and Firefighter.  We enjoyed reading Just Going to the Dentist by Mercer Mayer and painted with toothbrushes! We had lots of fun playing Post Office after the kids decorated envelopes.  They delivered them to each other during circle time. They also made postal hats! We read Will Goes to the Post Office by Olof Landstrom. Your children enjoyed building a community with special blocks in the sensory table as well creating imaginative games in the sand table with a variety of community helpers. Ask your child to tell you some examples of community helpers.

We really enjoyed our visit with Natick Organic Community Farm on Wednesday. The children planted vegetables and played a game related to growing plants! They learned about the parts of a plant. The flower, the stem, the root and the leaves. They also were taught about what a plant needs to grow, seeds, dirt, sun water and wind. They really enjoyed the presentation. Our kids planted beans by poking holes in the soil, covering them up and giving the seeds water.

As always, please feel free to reach out to us anytime on our classroom email – Preschool1@wnsh.org

Have a great weekend!
