Comets, Stars, the Moon, and Mars!

Dear P3 Parents,

First off, we would like to thank you for your continued support and cooperation during this time. We know classroom closures cause inconvenience and may upset many children, but we will do whatever we can to keep things as “normal” as possible. We hope everyone stays healthy and safe, and we will continue to do our best to provide the best learning environment for your children. We know that CDC and Health Department policies change frequently, so please be diligent in checking your email for the latest protocols.

We recently had our virtual Kindergarten Information Night meeting, and we would like to thank you for being there with your questions. We know life happens, and if you were not able to make it please reach out if you have any questions about our Kindergarten program.

We are concluding our studies on Antarctica, Polar Animals, and the Solar System. The children are truly fascinated by the planets and all things space, and enjoyed creating plenty of art projects, and large group lessons were always exciting! We loved seeing everyone participate in activities and we were truly impressed with their questions and sharing information to the class!

They enjoyed building their own rockets, as well as creating the phases of the moon with play-doh.

The children are continuing to work extra hard on language and math, getting plenty of individualized instruction. Our Pre-K students are focusing on sound recognition, word building, and number sequencing. Our older students are practicing their reading, math operations, and place value. They have also been working on writing activities such as circle maps and beginning creative writing with picture stories.

They also love working with their teachers!
