Messy Masterpieces

Art is a wonderful way to allow preschoolers to express themselves freely. It’s a playful, enjoyable activity that brings joy and a sense of accomplishment. Art encourages problem-solving as children figure out how to make their ideas come to life which supports cognitive development. Sensory-rich activities engage a child’s senses and promote sensory development. Art allows children to explore, experiment, and have a great time while doing so.

Younger Pod Patio Is Off To A Great Start!

It has been fun getting to know our young friends. Our new school year is off to a great start. The kids have been exploring the younger pod patio and enjoying all our hands on experiences. We want to thank all of those who donated towards our outdoor art easel. And a special thanks to our wonderful room 5 family who purchased our new balance beam as well. If you would like to donate towards our art easel, feel free to contact me, Ms. Carolina, at cmacias@pcs.school. We are looking forward to making memories with your kids this year.

FIRST SUMMER SESSION

Welcome to our 2023 Fun in the Sun at PCS. We are happy to see such amazing little campers, full of energy and ready to see new adventures.

Golf ball painting and our sensory table ocean discovery was fun and messy.

It’s a,amazing how they all can seat together in a group and enjoy a delicious snack.

These kids loved the mist fall on their head, chase bubbles and explore the wet sand.

Here they all are enjoying some blue SNOW CONES.

The sand has been wet and perfect for making fun castles or molds of some kind. The kids love it,

“WATER PLAY,” This summer it has not been much of a summer. JUNE GLOOM, Hahahaha! We are still wearing jackets and find it too cold for lots of water play.

Bikes are the favorite for these campers.

Art Studio Recap!!! 2022-23

What a fun filled artsy year of creativity and exploration!

YOUNG FRIENDSHIPS

February the month known to many as the month for love and friendship.

As a class we remind all of our kids to be kind and gentle with each other. Its not an easy task to learn , as adults we are still learning how to be kind and gentle. Here are some scenarios we experience in class. “ He took my toy away,” as teachers we assist both parties in resolving the conflict by either providing appropriate words to use with each other or assisting them in finding other options. Another option would be using a timer and taking turns with the object. You would be surprised by the outcome.

“PARTY TIME” Love was all around, valentine’s were given to each and every child and a we had a special snacks provided by our generous parents.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2022

We want to wish you a blessed and happy Christmas. Let us all remember that Christmas is a time to spend with your loved ones and be thankful for the miracle of Christmas.

SNOW DAYS AT PCS

Fun things we did before our two fun days with snow at PCS. We read books about snow such as “ What do snowmen do at night,” “ The Snowy Day,” “ The Jacket I Wear In The Snow,” “The First Day of Winter,” and “All You Need for a Snowman.”

With this book “WHAT DO SNOWMAN DO AT NIGHT,” many of our kiddos had their own idea on what snowman did at night. Some kids Said; “ They don’t sleep.” or “ They don’t play because they can’t move. “That’s silly.” “ If you give them hot coco they are going to melt.”

We identified arctic animals and played with ice in the sensory bins, observed and discussed with the kids what happened to ice when it was under the sun. We painted Beanies on the easel and used our fine motor skills to put pompoms on our snowman shaped bottles.

The Kids got creative with our large, medium and small boxes, they built high, sorted boxes by size or by decorations. Their creativity had many different forms, angles and kinds of snowman.

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2022
