Stepping Stones Preschool News

Spring is almost here and everyone is looking forward to the warmer weather.  We have spent the last two months inside observing changes that occur in winter.  In February we celebrated the holiday of
Tu B’Shevat.  We learned what we get from trees and snacked on “the fruit of the tree.”

The two-year old childeren started by learning what to wear for the colder temperatures. They dressed their snowmen for the cold weather.  The twos also learned how different animals survive in the ice and snow.

The three-year old children explored the different ways that artists paint. They also waited to see if the groundhog would see his shadow.  Getting along and being good friends were reinforced.  The children did a study of Penguins.

The four-year old children learned about Martin Luther King’s dream for all the people.  During Safety Week, they learned what to do in case of fire, how to stay healthy, their phone numbers and addresses, and how to take care of their teeth.  They continued learning their letters.  George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were the lessons for Presidents’ week.  

Now that spring is almost here, we will try to get outside and enjoy the warmer weather.  We will have our annual Purim festival for the school.  The children will make and eat hamentashen, see the story of Esther through a puppet show, make masks and dance.  It is a fun time for everyone!!

Then we will prepare for Passover.  The children will learn the story of Moses and Pharaoh.  We will sing songs and prayers with the Cantor.  The older children will have their annual Seder with their families during school.  We will make our own matzo to eat.  The children will be busy making many new things for their Seder table.

Registration has begun for the 2009-2010 school year.  If you know of anyone that wishes to join us, please have them call us at 360-7279.  We would be delighted to meet them and give a personal tour of the school.  

Enjoy your holidays.

Yours truly,

Randi Friedberg and Emily Moss
