Every Day is Earth Day!

In "The 3 R's" song Jack Johnson teaches us the importance of the 3 R's....

REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE!!!!

If you're going to the market to buy some juice
You've got to bring your own bags and you learn to reduce your waste
And if your brother or your sister's got some cool clothes
You could try them on before you buy some more of those
Reuse, we've got to learn to reuse
And if the first two R's don't work out
And if you've got to make some trash
Don't throw it out
Recycle, we've got to learn to recycle,
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Pre-K has been learning ways to help protect our Earth through books, Scholastic magazines and songs.  Click on the link below to hear Jack Johnson's catchy tune "The 3 R's". Remember to REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE!

Mat Man!

"Mat Man" is a song where we use "body parts" to help build a person! We are learning and practicing how to draw a person including a head, eyes, nose, mouth, ears, body, arms, hands, legs and feet. The class has made great progress since "Mat Man" was introduced! We just can't get enough of "Mat Man"! Check out how it's done below! 

 Putting Mat Man together!

DAY 5: PJ Day and Dr. Seuss' Birthday!

 Day 5: Pajama Day and Dr. Seuss' Birthday!

What a "Suess"-essful week with "On the Loose with Dr. Seuss!"

Thanks to everyone for participating!!!

We learned (and read) a ton and had so much fun! (Hey...that rhymes!) :)

 We made these hats ourselves!

 Dr. B stopped in to Pre-K and read us a couple of Dr. Seuss stories! 

Awesome family projects! We added the cat faces in school! 

Thanks to Ryan's mom for drawing the awesome Cat in the Hat! 

We will definitely save it for years to come!

Come check out our Dr. Seuss bulletin board before we fly away!!!

And of course...William in his PJs!

Remember it is important (and fun) to read to your child every day!!!!!

Some tips while reading that we have been working on...

Point out where the title is, the cover of the book, the back of the book, the spine of the book, talk about the author and illustrator, characters, also where you begin reading the story! While reading the story discuss what is happening in the pictures and recognizing familiar letters and words and 

even words that rhyme.

All of these skills will be SO helpful going into Kindergarten!

Thank you for coming along for the ride with "On the Loose with Dr. Seuss!"

DAY 4: HAT DAY!

Pre-K is still going strong on day 4 with "On the Loose with Dr. Seuss!"

Don't we look so adorable in our hats?!
We read "The Cat in the Hat" along with other Dr. Seuss books....

William joined in on the fun too! 

Tomorrow, Pre-K will make our own hats!
