Welcome

I am finding it much easier to update current information on my Facebook page.  This blog gives you a good idea of what our classroom looks like, and some of the activities we do.  If you want a good idea of what we do on a daily basis check out https://www.facebook.com/Ilovestepaheadpreschool

New Class

I am adding a new class!  It will be a 3/4 year old class on Monday and Wednesdays from 11:30-1:30.  The cost is $60.00 with a $30.00 registration fee.  There will be 2 teachers so we can split up ages and abilities to help students get the best education possible.  Both teachers have teaching degrees and experience working with children.  If you are interested call April at 680-9227.

Back To School Night 2013

Back to school night is set for Thursday, August 29th from 5:30-7:00.  This is a great time to bring in classroom supplies, meet other classmates and their families, and ask any questions you have about the upcoming year.  You don't need to plan on staying the whole time.  There will be a small craft, and a few sign-up sheets for you to look at.  Look for an e-mail in a couple of weeks.  The summer seems to be flying by, and I can't wait to work with a new group of kids!  Have a wonderful rest of summer, and see you all soon!

Look What's New!

To say I am excited would be an understatement.  This is the new mural that is in our classroom, and I cannot wait to see the kids faces when they come back to school.  I also can't wait to see how they interact with this throughout the year.  This was painted by Aubrey Zaugg, who will be a parent this year.  Thank you Aubrey!

Thank you!

I just wanted to thank everyone for another wonderful year.  I enjoy getting to work with your kids, but also getting to know all the parents.  I know that you can take your child wherever you want for preschool, but I am grateful that you would entrust them to me.  As always we have so much fun, and I love watching your children learn and grow.  They all change so much each year, and I am grateful that I get to help them on their journey.  I hope everyone has a wonderful summer.  To many of you, I will see you next year, and to my sweet 4 year olds - good luck in Kindergarten.  I will miss you all!

Life Flight Field Trip

The 4 year old class had a fantastic time at the Life Flight Field Trip.  We always have so much fun, but this year we actually had wonderful weather, and it was so great.  The kids loved seeing the helicopter, and we had fun finishing up our bug unit at the park.  We made some fun crafts, played some fun games, and had a fun picnic lunch. 

The 3 year old class had their Teddy Bear Picnic the day before, but I forgot my camera.  As always the kids had a blast.  Thank you to all the wonderful parents who helped, and came to support your child. 

Firestation

We always have so much fun visiting the firestation.  The kids are always so interested in what they do, and love getting to sit in the fire truck.  It is one of our favorite field trips of the year.
