 Welcome to Our Pre-Kindergarten WebPage!
Welcome to you and your child as we begin a new school year at Dayton Islamic School. We are so pleased to have your child in our Pre-Kindergarten room this year. This will be a very productive year for our class, one in which the students will make great strides in both their education and their social skills. In this classroom, the students have the great fortune of having two teachers in the room, Mrs. Melissa Funderburg (Miss F.) and Sister Nure Ahmed (Sr. Nuru). Both of us will be in the room all day with the students. This year we will begin to teach your child basic fundamentals such as, colors, shapes, the alphabet and much more, in the style of the Montessori Method. In this teaching style, we will encourage students to take charge of their learning by circulating through pre-planned explorations in the room at their own pace. Throughout each day the children will complete learning activities in five areas of the room: Practical Life, Sensory, Mathematics, Language Arts, and Science/Geography.
Upcoming Events
Reminder!! There is no School on Monday September 6th as well as Friday September 10th.
Our Focus For Aug. 30 - Sept. 3
Now that most of the class knows the routine and what behavior we expect to see in our classroom, we are working on getting to know eachother. Not only are we trying to learn each other's names but we are also working on recognizing our names in print. When you step into the classroom, you will see names hung all around for the children to view all day. We are even working on tracing and writing our first names! During this week, I will also be assessing the children as they work on counting to ten with me.
Note From Mrs. F.
Parents,
I hope to work closely with you all during the course of the school year to ensure that the students achieve as many goals as possible. I will keep in contact with you on a regular basis, and I hope that you will do the same with me. My email address is Melissa@dis4u.org.
Reminders
Please continue to adhere to our school's set drop-off and pick-up times.
Every two weeks, your child will bring home his or her blanket. Please wash it and return to school the following Monday. Please make sure that your child's belongings come back to school so they can be comfortable at school.
Also, many of the students are coming to school without their folders. Please make sure that your child brings his or her folder to school EVERY day. Thank you!!
