All About Me


















Hip, hip hooray! Come with us to JOY SCHOOL today!! We are so excited to start a new year with six little balls of energy. Joining us this year are: RJ, Jared, Kaylee, Isaac, Everett, and Max.

We kicked off our year at Everett’s home. Our theme was “All About Me.” Circle time was a little rambunctious. We will work on learning how to sit on our mats for the next little while. We started off reciting the Pledge of Allegience. We read two books, “Molly Lou Melon” and “Just the Way You Are.” We played a game putting stickers on our different body parts and sang Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes.

For snack we chomped on grape caterpillars. They were squirty and delicious. Since everyone has teeth and used them on snacks we learned how to brush our teeth. We used egg cartons cut into strips as our teeth. First we got our teeth dirty with markers. Then the kids brushed off the gross germs with toothpaste and a brush. It was a messy and fun activity.

After snack we worked on a book describing each child. The kids loved choosing markers to use and coloring the booklet pages. RJ is very particular and did a very neat job. That was our very first day of preschool!
