Our First Week!





Wow! What a wonderful first week we had in our 2's class!

Our unit this week was School Days & Making New Friends! We talked a lot about making new friends and all of the fun things we get to do while we are at school. We also talked about what the bible is and our first bible lesson was In the beginning...Genesis 1:1.

We read the book The Kissing Hand by Audrey Penn. The children even got to play with our very own Chester the raccoon! We also read the books: What to expect at Preschool, Mouse's 1st day of school (which I think was there favorite) and Froggy goes to school.

In our circle time we introduced Dude our weather helping frog. We sang songs about the calendar and worked on our counting!

The children are learning about center buddies and doing center rotations. Everyone had an opportunity to play in our: puzzle, block, play dough, home-living, and art center. In the art center we painted a school bus, made an earth collage, and stamped our hands to go along with The Kissing Hand.

Next week our unit will be The 2's Go Green! We will be talking about recycling and focusing on the color green. Our bible lessons will be Adam & Eve and The Sneaky Snake!


A Few Reminders!


  • Please send your child's snack and lunch in disposable containers.

  • If you have not purchased an official His Kids Tote, see Heather or Suzanne in the front office. More have been ordered!

  • Please send your child a nap mat for rest time instead of a sleeping bag. This is in our His Kids Handbook.


Love, Ms Cassie and Ms. Jen
