The four year old class is quickly adjusting to the routine. They know most of the words to our daily songs already and are making great progress with the Pledge.

The first week of Preschool at Inquisitive Minds Academy went very well! Everyone is already adjusting to the routine here at preschool. We are still working on learning all of our daily songs such as our days of the week song and our months of the year song. We are also working on learning to Pledge the Flag. They are all such wonderful children to work with and I am looking forward to week two!

First Day: 3 Year Old

The First day for the 3 Year Old class went very well! They all had a wonderful time while I introduced them to the daily routine activities. They enjoyed our days of the week and months of the year songs. We went over colors and numbers 1-10 and reviewed shapes that they already knew and talked about some new shapes. They did very well with reciting the alphabet and their corresponding sounds. They loved jumping around as we acted out the five little monkeys! They did great while listening for words that begin with the /m/ sounds and finding different shapes and colors around the room. 

Today we also had a birthday celebration for Emma. She brought cupcakes from home and we all sang Happy Birthday to her during our daily meeting. Happy Birthday Emma!

This weeks focus:
Letter: Mm
Number: 1 one
Color: red
Shape: Circle
