Hello Parents!  We are blissfully aware that we have survived our first week of Preschool.  I am sure this week was just as hard on many of you as it was on our students, but I assure you, we ALL had a fun time and are quickly learning what school is all about.  Last week we spent a lot of time getting familiar with our classroom, our friends, our teachers and schedule.  This week we will begin a more in depth discussion of what happens at school.  What are the rules? How do we use glue and scissors? What are some kind ways to play with our friends?  A few of our students are returning from last year so they might already be familiar with this material, but it will be a great reminder to them, and a great experience for our new friends, if those students help us out by being good models and leaders.

Upcoming events:  School pictures are Friday, September 11
                               Flouride will be done on Monday, September 28

Here are some pictures from our first few days of school!

Taking a break from Recess

We have done a lot of sharing of our names and things we like.  Learning how to take turns speaking is a hard job to do.

 Please note:  I have also added a closed group to my Facebook account for preschool family use.  Only the immediate family members of preschool students will be added to the group for the safety of our children.  It is a private group so that only invited members may see the information posted.  If you wish you join the group, please click or search for Preschool at Wellman Elementary on Facebook.
