A Day in the Life of Nursery! 

 Now that the children are happily adjusted, we were able to establish a routine! I wanted to send home a simple schedule to give you a quick glimpse at what a day in the life of Nursery entails. Every week we will go over a new Nursery Rhyme, letter, number, shape and color. Every Month we will have a new “theme”. This upcoming theme will be Winter Wonderland! We are starting to  explore our shapes this week! As the children begin to grow and develop a longer work stamina, we will adjust our schedule by adding higher order of thinking centers/sensory bins etc. I am loving every second of working with your children! 

 Our letter of the week is P and we will continue to work on new name recognition activities. We will also work on our tracing.
