3 Year Olds Newsletter

Dear Parent,
This week we are continuing to explore with the snow God has provided us. We will be tracing shapes, developing our fine motor skills by cutting and squeezing to use just a dot of liquid glue and following patterns. In the Science Center we will be using different classroom objects to weigh a snowball. I am sending home The Lord's Prayer with motions paper ( I forgot last week) for you to practice at home if you wish. I will be sending home the assessments next week. The snow days have me backed up.

Tip #9 for Parents From  Preschool Teachers
 

Warn of transitions. If your child pitches a fit whenever you announce it's time to switch gears --whether that means shutting off the TV, stopping play to come eat, or leaving a friend's house -- it could be that you're not giving enough advance notice. "At school we let kids know when transitions are coming so they have time to finish whatever they're doing," observes Cohen-Dorfman. "If you need to leave the house at 8:30 a.m., warn your child at 8:15 that she's five more minutes to play, then will have to stop to put her toys away. Set a timer so she knows when the time is up."
Have a blessed week and enjoy the snow God seems to be delighting in!
Sincerely,
Pamela Nunnelley
