Hello Sun Room Families!

We cannot express how happy we are that the children are doing so wonderfully! Thank you for all of your help and cooperation during this time. The children have done a spectacular job separating in part because of the great job you are doing!

We have been learning all about our school and having so much fun in the Sun Room. Here are a few highlights:

Classroom Activities

• The Sun Room children kept very busy using dot markers to make placemats for snack. We've also made shiny Suns using tissue paper and glitter. 

​Songs We sang

• “5 Happy Preschoolers” (finger play):
  

Five happy preschoolers ready to start (hold up five fingers).
The first one said, "Preschoolers are smart!" (wiggle thumb).
The second one said, "Let's sing a song." (wiggle pointer finger).
The third one said, "Can I sing along?" (wiggle middle finger).
The fourth one said, "I'll hand out the snack." (wiggle ring finger).
The fifth one said, "I can't wait to come back!" (wiggle little finger).
Five little preschoolers went to play, (hold up five fingers).
On their very first preschool day! (wiggle five fingers)

• We also sang “A Name Song” (sung to the tune of “The Muffin Man”). “[Rosi]’s name begins with [R], Begins with [R], begins with [R]. [Rosi]’s name begins with [R] [R,R,R,R].
