Superstars

 

In February, the Superstars will focus on God's love for us and how we can love others.  We will watch for the groundhog's forecast, learn about President's Day and how to care for our teeth.  We will practice patterning, continue working on writing our names and getting familiar with letters and numbers.  Our shape is a heart and color is pink. 

 

The Monkey Business will be celebrating dental hygiene, Valentine's Day, President's Day, Leap Year and a week of Dr. Seuss.  We will be working on recognizing the numbers 1-10 and continue working on our alphabet with letters L, V and X.  From the Bible, we will be looking at some of the Psalms and Daniel and the Lions Den.

The 3 year old classroom has a Christian loving atmosphere where the children's knowledge really begins to blossom. Throughout the year the children will master their colors and shapes. Letters are a primary focus with concentration on one letter per week.  They are encouraged to count aloud and recognize the numbers from 1-10.  Fine motor skills and beginning writing skills are practiced through fun arts and craft activities.

The Gospel and Bible stories are an intricate part of the daily routine.  The children attend Chapel biweekly where God's Word is presented on their level.  Stories, singing and movement get them excited and help them learn.  The lessons are then reinforced in the classroom with additional activities. 

Once a week the children attend a special enrichment class.  This class includes library, music, art and science.  Each lesson provides the children an opportunity to explore the gifts God has given them and learn about God's Creations through interactive activities.
