Preschool Fire Drill

Practicing staying safe is an important part of our preschool curriculum. This includes periodic fire/earthquake drills. On Thursday, March 11 the entire preschool took part in a fire drill. Everyone exited the preschool to muster up in the preschool parking lot for a quick headcount. The children did a fantastic job listening to teachers and we had an incredibly smooth drill. Great work everyone!

Room 1A Celebrating Valentine’s Day with Heart Waffles

Our Valentine’s Day parties were a success! Our kiddos all enjoyed the delicious treats you all contributed with. Nothing puts a smile on a kid’s face like 2 heart shaped waffles, mixed berries, syrup and powdered sugar. This Valentine’s party was not just about having some sweets and exchanging gifts. We focused on the importance of showing kindness towards others and praying for one another – lots of meaningful discussions this week. We hope you enjoy the videos and pictures that accompany this blog. Happy Valentine’s Day Room 1A!

Chapel – February 2021

February Chapel is always a great time to talk about love and specifically, God’s love.

For this chapel we read 1 John 4:7-13, which discusses how much God loves us and the role we play in sharing God’s love with the world.

Our focus song was G.O.D. is L.O.V.E. based on 1 John 4:8 & 16 and we learned how to spell it out using American sign language.

We also enjoyed reading the book Because God Loves Me! Below you will find the link to Mr. Tim’s YouTube version of the story.

We concluded chapel by brainstorming how we can show love at the preschool. The most popular answers across all the classrooms were…share, give hugs, say “hi”, and give cards.

We are so grateful for the love of God and the ability to share that love with the world.

Snow Days!

Hello Room 1A Families!

Here is a recap of our Snow Days! It was AMAZING! We had a wonderful time in the snow using sleds, building snowmen and making snow angels. We are so glad they were able to enjoy some snow! Please enjoy the photos below!

Room 1A Prayer Circle

Hello! We wanted to share with you one of the activities we did last week! It was a circle prayer. We were learning about the importance of praying for others. After reading the Bible story associated with the topic, we talked about a few things we could pray about. We asked them to pray for the friend next to them. I want to say, they did AMAZING! They showed so much love for their friends, family and teachers! You should all be extremely proud of them! Please enjoy the video below!

To extend our lesson on our Bible story “How to Pray” and the importance of prayer, we also read “What Happens When I Talk to God?”. To end the week, we talked to God through singing and dancing during worship time.

Snow Way, How’d They Do That?!

For those who are curious about how we managed to create a wintery funscape here in our preschool parking lot, check out the videos below.

Utilizing enormous blocks of ice and a specialized ice shaving machine, Artic Glacier is able to make it snow wherever they go.

Day 2’s Snow Refresh…

We are so grateful for the blessing of our Snow Days!

Chapel – January 2021

We are so excited to be back together at the preschool and to have our very first Chapel of 2021!

Today we discussed what we remembered about the Christmas Story and the birth of Jesus. Where he was born and who Jesus’ first visitors were. Then we learned about the Wise Men from the East and read Matthew 2:1-12 as well as the Rhyme Bible. We learned how the Wise Men (Magi) followed the star from far away to find the new born king (Messiah). The children had a wonderful time learning the first two verses of We Three Kings and discussing the three gifts that the Wise Men brought. It was a fantastic way to start a new year together.
