2025 - 2026 PreK Family Tree
Week 3/2 - 3/6
Last week the kids enjoyed many activities playing with magnets. From number review to building robots, playing games and just experimenting with them, they had fun.
As some of you may have noticed with their letter "K" homework, "K" was very challenging to write for many. I save learning how to write letters with angled lines for last for a reason. This week we will learn letter "A". As we learn all letters with angled lines, any brief practice at home would be helpful, thank you.
We also began to learn to listen for and identify rhyming word pairs and families. Dr. Seuss week is a perfect week to begin this because his books are filled with rhyming words.
K review
Letter review and learning about rhyming word families.
Number formation review with magnets.
Measuring each other to determine who are the tallest and shortest kids in our class. Scarlette with Brennan coming in at a close 2nd is our tallest student. Mia and Sebastian are our shortest.
Magnet fun!
Taking turns placing your magnetic stone within the circle but don't let it attract the others because then you have to pick up all the stones that were attracted. The one with no stones left is the winner.
Building robots
More experimenting and playing with magnets.
Marble maze play
Magnet sensory table play

Letter review
Thank you for sending in books for the kids to share.
Free play
Last weekend Pete the Cat had a big adventure traveling with Camila and her family to Austin to watch her brother compete in Mexican folk dancing. They enjoyed watching him dance, going out to eat and Pete even received a phone call in their hotel room. When they got home, Pete told parrot all about their adventure. Thank you Camila for taking good care of Pete!!
Camila's mom shared a picture she had taken when Camila's older brother brought Pete home for the weekend when he was in PreK. Love that Pete gets to once again spend time with former PreK students. Lucas is now in 4th grade.
Camila chose Rebecca to be with Pete this weekend.
We have another 5 year old!! Happy birthday to Jimmy, and thank you for sharing delicious birthday donuts with the class!

Miss Jennifer will have a wagon to carry all lunches and drinks so please label everything with your child's name. She will gather everyone's lunches etc. before we leave and bring it to the zoo. Kids are to wear the red St. E polo shirts, jeans/shorts and tennis shoes. Right now, there is about a 50% chance of rain. We will reschedule our trip if needed.
