Welcome to our ZOO!

This week was an exciting one for many of our preschoolers.  We learned about all sorts of animals and their habitats!  

We enjoyed  talking about animals from the sea and the farm and we built various habitats as we talked about them.  Check out one of our Haiku Decks to see what we show the children for letter of the day and to introduce our activities and topics for the week.

 As we spoke about pets, we made dogs out of letter D's (to coordinate with the letter of the day) and then we made habitats for the various types of animals we spoke about using sand, water, ice, grass, sticks, etc.  

Elephants, zebras, frogs and more were created this week as we learned songs, acted like other animals, reviewed animal sounds and read books on wild animals as well as pets.  

We had our first Star of the Week and a birthday as well.  The topic of the week went wonderfully for this birthday boy!

 What's going on Next Week?

It's Homecoming Week at PHS, which means your child is free to dress up with us for Pajama Day on Monday, (come to school wearing PJ's) and dress as wild and wacky as you wish for Wacky Wednesday (anything that looks out of the ordinary) and then Friday is Pirate Pride day (anything Red or representing PHS or Pirates).

We will be talking about various kinds of sports in honor of the, "Big Game" on Friday.
