My Marvelous Body
As we study all about our marvelous bodies we will talk about ways that we are all alike and ways that we are all different. We will learn all of the ways to keep our bodies healthy like sleep, nutritious food and exercise. Please remember that we go outside to play every day unless it is extremely windy, rainy or too cold (less than 40 degrees). Dress your child accordingly. Remember fresh air is good for children and there are fewer germs in the outside air. As Thanksgiving approaches we will talk about what makes us thankful.
Daily activities and updates are sent directly to parents through our ProCare app.
Skill Goal Focus
Beginners: Children will add seasonal words and body part names to their vocabulary. They will lay the foundation for later math by increasing their awareness of numbers and shapes. A lot of practice on stairs, throwing a ball, stringing beads, hopping jumping, and turning somersaults will absorb some of the tremendous energy of our younger group as well as increase their balance and coordination.
Preschool: Children will prepare for future reading skills by practicing recognition of identical pictures, shapes, patterns, letters, and sounds. They will enhance their ability to listen by recognizing everyday sounds without visual clues, and clapping in rhythm to music. Coordination and endurance will improve as they jump and run. Remember it is important to develop all aspects of the child. The physical skills are as important as the academic skills
