Happy Friday! Hop into gold room! 😁
Children manipulated some fabric through a weaving gate. The manipulation of the fabric not only strengthened their fine motor skills and their hand-eye coordination but their pre-writing skills as well.

Look into the fantastical world of pre-k:

Welcome and welcome back! Here are some pictures of children during the first week of school. The first week of school we spend a lot of time learning what it’s like to be in the classroom. Who is here? When do I eat? Where do I sit for small group time? It is also a great time to meet new friends and re-connect with current friends. Let’s have a great year everyone!
