Learning through play, song and movement!

Ms. Dessie's students are ready to learn this year!  All classes have shown great skills already.  We have enjoyed singing with Ms. Sherry and moving with Coach John.  Mostly, we have enjoyed getting to know one another and getting familiar with preschool procedures and routines.  We spend a lot of time at the beginning of the year becoming very familiar with our Zoophonic friends.  We are learning the sounds so well that we have already begun to pick out the sounds when we try to spell simple CVC words.  It is so exciting to see the connection students can make so early!  We are also working hard on our Capital letters in handwriting.  We are now getting to the harder letters, like M and N.   Practice makes perfect is true with our handwriting.  But the best thing we are learning is how to be a friend that is a great "bucket filler".  Getting along and learning how to use words to communicate our feelings and wants and knowing when to speak and when to listen are the best life skills we are understanding.  Those skills will always be used throughout life.  It is going to be a great learning year together!
