The Jean Road pre-school class has been busy learning about deserts and the old west. Tumbleweeds and rattle snakes were topics we covered last week. Did you know that tumbleweeds scatter seeds as they roll through the desert? Pretending to be tumbleweeds, our preschoolers curled up like a ball and rolled across the room for some gross motor time. The topic of rattle snakes has been a big hit with our boys. We read about why snakes use their tails to warn and scare away other animals and people.
In our letter skills time we are learning the letter y and z. Yorky the yellow jacket and Zack the zebra are the puppet friends for this month. We love our puppet friends and of course, learning about letters!
We are hard at work preparing for our transition the Meridian campus next month. We are working on our self help skills. Putting on and zipping up own coats is a new found skill for many of our classmates. Our pre-schoolers are very proud of their skills! Putting on our own shoes and socks is big news! We have made such progress this month; it is very exciting! Way to go pre-schoolers!
