Beautiful Butterflies
What an awesome year. We have learned so much in what seems now to be a little time. Pre K to Kindergarten has learned the power of the Lord’s creation by learning the stages of a butterfly.

End of Year Fun
We have been busy as bees in Pre K 4, from our graduation trip to Chuck E Cheese to our end of the year Surf is up Luau party. We had so much fun playing musical chairs, hula hooping and most importantly we had a special guest from Hawaii that taught us how to Hula dance and tell a story at the same time. Finally we had our Pre K-4 graduation which was amazing, everyone looked so fancy with their special dress up clothes and did a fantastic job. Congrats to Pre K-4 class of 2013 have a great summer you have earn it!

Show and Tell
Letters and Sound Presentations, in other words show and tell. Each week we have a day that each child can show and tell about something special that they bring from home that has the beginning letter and sound of the week This week we are on the letter J and the children brought in a jump rope, jewelry, picture of the jungle, a jaguar toy and a joke. When one student told a joke all the other children began to laugh and each one had a turn.

Monster-Talk
This was a fun lesson as the students learned about syllables. Each one clapped out their name count how many syllables are in their names. The fun part about it is that we made funny monster sounds then put it together to make a complete word. This was a great lesson to teach reading readiness.

Detectives
Have you seen the Gingerbread Man? Pre K 4 and I baked some gingerbread cookies. When we went to take them out of the oven they were gone. Pre K 4 became detectives as we looked all around the school for him. All he left was a gum drop everywhere we looked. Finally after nap time he came back and fell fast asleep on the desk. This lesson was connected across the subjects of reading and math. The children had a great time trying to figure out where the Gingerbread man was and had more fun eating him.

We Have Fun Together
Our class went on a trip to the pumpkin farm and we each picked a pumpkin, and rode on the school bus.
When we go to the library we listen to great stories. We all prayer together, have snack and lunch together too. We are leaning so much in Pre K 3. Thank You Jesus.

Songs Help Us Remember
We pick out puzzles shapes and colors, we know so many now. We have magnets with our alphabet letters on them and we sing songs to help us remember them. We trace them and color them too.
In class we play games to teach us things that are the same and things that are different.

Bible Time Dress Up
Since September PreK3 has learned so many new Bible stories, we have use puppets and have dressed up like some of the people in the Bible we have learned about. We now can walk together as a class and we are doing just great when we go to Chapel, Gym and Art.

Each month elementary students have a “Spirit Day” where we focus on a theme, read books, and dress up for that day’s theme. September was “flash forward” day when students dressed like their grandparents or how they thought they might look in 70 years. October was “friends” day and they dressed up like twins or triplets. November was a fun time for elementary students as we celebrated Thanksgiving our spirit day was combined with the Harvest Fair and they dressed up like Cowboys, Indians, and Farmers. All of Elementary got together in November to participate in our annual Harvest Fair complete with crafts, games, obstacle course, and face painting! Instead of participating in Operation Christmas Child this year, we focused on collecting donations for Hurricane Sandy victims. We are so proud of our students for stepping up and having a heart of ministry! Each class had their own Thanksgiving meals in their classes and invited their parents to come and enjoy some great food and company.
