Spring is Coming!

We have had some warm and sunny days recently and we took full advantage of them. Playing comes so naturally to us and we do it every day!

Outside we have so much fun with each other. We love climbing and digging and bouncing.
All the fun in the sun we had last week!
We played with umbrellas in preparation for the rain. We even had a train that Mr. Yorlin made and let us use it. Thanks! It was so much fun.
The sand was perfect for making mountains after the rain.
We were practicing with scissors
And we are learning new skills.

Today has been such a wet day and we haven’t gone outside much but it’s fun to look back on last week when we did!

Dinosaur Bones

Room 3 has been very interested in dinosaurs recently: being them, playing with them and discovering them.

The past two days we have watched a short video called Dinosaur Bones. All about where dinosaurs lived and how they lived.
We watched the video on Wednesday and then when the kids came in Thursday morning they sat in front of the screen and pretended to watch it again.

We have been playing with dinosaurs and pretending to be them for a couple of weeks and we are learning things along the way.

Playing Around

Playing is such an important part of what we do at school. During playtime we learn to work together, share, and express ourselves in positive ways.

Building with blocks is a new favorite pastime. We also have dinosaur bones in our sensory table that we discover together!
Imaginative play happens quite often. We play puppies and kittens almost everyday.
We love the sandbox and all the things we make there.
Bristle blocks and dinosaurs are also a fan favorite.

We enjoy playing with each other! It’s the best part of our day. We greet each other enthusiastically when we arrive and we cheerfully say goodbye at the end of the day.

We are building relationships everyday through work and play.

Party II! (Valentines Celebration)

We have so much fun being together! Building castles and drawing pictures! Ms. Kira got several pictures to take home today.
Outside we ran and played and danced and built and climbed all over the structure . We stay so active!
We sang our songs about love during morning meeting and read our books about love.
Both of these books are loved by the class.
We all loved snack. We had our special snack mix.
As well as raspberries, strawberries and grapes.

We had so much snack that Ms. Kira was afraid we wouldn’t have room for our lunches.

We played with our sparkly play dough and had an all around good time!

We had such a good time celebrating love and remembering to be loving. We danced and ran and climbed and created so many things!

The Room 3 teachers are thankful we get to do a job we love with such wonderful children and families. We love you all and we thank God that we can share that love with you and each other!

(And right after nap we got to go outside and we saw a beautiful rainbow)

Valentine’s Day Party!! 🎉💕🥳

While we are celebrating love all month long we are especially doing so for the next couple of days. We started our day in the yard with an exciting dance party and playing on the structure!

The Floor is Lava is a favorite song for outside.
Thanks for all the great decorations!
We had a special snack mix of popcorn, pretzels and raisins as well as grapes and strawberries.
Snack time was so quiet. 😋Mmmm! It was so good!
We played with sparkly play dough that Ms. Sheri made for today and we got to make our own Valentines cards.
We ended our day playing with the post office on the yard.

Today was a busy day and we enjoyed it so much!

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.

So much snow!

Day 2 of Snow Days was as greatly anticipated as the first! We had so much fun going down the slope. So many friends went down together and even the teachers took a turn!

Friends and teachers enjoyed the snow!
Riding along with friends!
Making snowballs!
Group photo time!
We came in and had hot chocolate and a couple marshmallows and then had fun playing in our classroom.

Thank you Pasadena Christian Preschool for snow much fun!!! 🥰⛄️☃️
