We have had another busy week together. We have been learning about St. Patrick and planting our first Spring project of Easter grass for our parent Easter gifts. The children are excited to watch it grow. They learned how Saint Patrick taught about the Mystery of the Blessed Trinity, one God, 3 persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, using a shammrock. We have been keeping up with our Lenten Promise to pray one decade of the rosary with our friends in Pre-K4 P. The children are learning quickly about how to pray the rosary.

It is great to back in the swing of school! Miss Ramos and I are so happy to have all the children back in school. We had a successful return. The children did get right back into our classroom and school procedures. Thank you for providing the children with their snow gear. It was good that we could get outdoors this week. The children did have fun playing in the Blizzard Snow. We met with our friends in Mrs. Pelletier's class this week to pray one decade of the rosary. It is great to have the children together and learning about their faith through prayer.

The houses will serve as our mailbox for our Valentine's. The children's addresses will be on them to help them learn their address.

Thank you all for your support with sending in your child/children's snow gear. It makes a big difference in the children's day to play outdoors. This week we've been reviewing shapes, and one to one counting and exercising our fine motor skills with scissor work to cut-out shapes to build a snowflake. The children enjoyed the activity and are very pleased with his or her snowflake. I have kept some of the children's letter Pp work to adorn our classroom for Open House this weekend. This helps families know one of the strategies of how we approach letter recognition and phonemic awareness in our preschool program.

Next week is Catholic Schools' Week please read the schedule that was sent home last Friday. It has the information of what special activities we have scheduled. I am sure Mrs. Rogers has reposted it on the Weekly Walk-Thru. I want to highlight next week's Community Outreach is for the Homeless. Each grade is providing a contribution to help the Homeless. The preschoolers are invited to contribute granola bars and or gloves or mittens. Please consider to send one of these items.

We have been working on our watercolor painting and crayon process self-portraits and snowman proportion art. The children are very proud of their efforts. They should be proud; their work is well done.

Dear Families,
Dear Families,
We’ve had a successful return to the routine of preschool. I am so happy to see these beautiful children everyday. We are still in the Christmas Season and have celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany, the visitation of the Three Wise Men or Kings. We read Tomie de Paola, The Three Wise Men. Then crafted an illustration of the Three Wise Men with the gifts of frankincense, myrrh, and gold. This art will be added to our Nativity Story book. Today, we read our Let’s Find Out Magazine about Dr. Martin Luther King. It explains about creating peace in adversity. Our children’s critical thinking in this reader always amazes me. They’re a very insightful group. It is a great reader and it might be a good idea to reread it this weekend with your child.

Also, this week all the preschools are now preparing with Mrs. Girouard and Mrs. Plante our Patriotic Assembly for Catholic Schools’ Week. This takes place on Wednesday, Jan 28, 2026 at 8:45. On this day, the children will come to school dressed in Patriotic colors of red, white, and blue, and perform Patriotic Songs to honor our Military. Each family is welcome to have two guests attend this event. At the end of the Patriotic Songs, Mrs. Plante has a slide show that honors the Military Heroes of our school. If you have a Military Hero or Veteran in your family please send Mrs. Plante a photo with the name and rank. If you have already given Mrs. Plante a photo last year, no need to send it again. She will keep that photo in the presentation. If you want to change the photo, you can send her a different photo. Her email address is aplante@sfxacushnet.com. The assembly should only take an hour.

The children enjoyed hot chocolate and their Party in a Bag snacks. They played with the little trinket that was gifted to them. Oh! the Polar Express traveled to Mexico! We were able to learn about today's feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe with Miss Ramos! The children created a beautiful tilma that they colored and cut-out. This is image of Our Lady of Guadalupe that miraculously appeared on Saint Juan Diego's tilma.

The festivities have been abundant this week. We created pattern socks to use for our classroom Christmas Cards. It is a creative and effective activity to apply the AB pattern. If your child wants to pass out Christmas Cards to his or her classmates, we will use these socks to hold the cards. Next week, we will continue to review letters we have introduced this year thus far. Also work on our Nativity Book. I have posted some pictures from today's events and this from this week.

When we return to school, we are in the Advent Season! This is a special time that we are preparing our hearts for the coming of Jesus, our Savior. The children went home with an Advent Wreath, a craft activity, we completed in class. There are four candles on the wreath. Three are purple and one rose. One candle is lit each Sunday to lead up to Christmas. There are 4 yellow flames on the wreath for the children to "light" the candle. The first purple candle is lit this Sunday. This candle represents Hope in our Savior.

Our week was busy with working on some projects with the leaves we collected from our Leaf Walk. The children have enjoyed learning about the different types of leaves we collected. Then we sorted the different types and counted how many of each type using a large leaf graph. After sorting and counting we then made a Fall Wreath with them. They will be brought home next week. They're adorning our hallway.

Thank you all for your support with our Leaf Walk. The children were well dressed to enjoy the chilly morning air. Our Lord, blessed us with a gorgeous sunny day! We all had a spectacular time with the other children in Pre-K 4 P and taking a closer look at the beauty of the Autumn Leaves. Of course our journey ended with moving our gross motor muscles at the playground. In the afternoon, we gave a good try at painting and stamping a couple of our leaves. I'm just going to say this activity was about the " process" and not the " product".

We had a great guest reader this week, Mr. Perry, Theodore's Dad, and a USA Veteran of the Navy. He graciously visited our Preschoolers and read them a book by Jill Biden, Don't Forget , God Bless our Troops. Both classes were engaged and enjoyed his presence and the story. Thank you Mr. Perry for your support in our classroom and protecting our USA. I pray you all have a Blessed Long Weekend. The children are going home with some SAL work to complete on Monday. It is a school day but we are not here at the school. The children will receive attendance if they complete and return the complete SAL- work.

Happy All Hallo's Eve! We had a joyful day with the children in saint costumes, trunk and treat, our Church Buddies, and ending the day with Holy Mass! We are so Blessed! Thank you all for your support with having your child dress in a saint costume and those that were part of the Trunk or Treat, Thank You so much! I was able to take a few pictures from today and they are posted on the menu on Our Classroom Photos page. There are just a couple of pictures of the children dyeing rice for our sensory table. The children helped empty out the sand out of the table. Now we have orange rice. The children were engaged in coloring the rice and are enjoying the play at the sensory table.

You will see the progression of letters that follow Cc. t Also, next week, on Friday we celebrate All Saints' Day. Here is the link to Catholic Icing for some saint costume ideas Please have your child dress as a Saint. Catholic Icing is a great website to go to for costume ideas. https://www.catholicicing.com/all-saints-day-resources-for-kids/

Also, please help your child learn something about the saint that he or she is representing. We will have a little Show and Tell about our Saints of the day. For example, Saint Francis of Assisi loved all God's creatures. The boys can wear a simple long wrap and carry a small stuffed animal. The Pre-K 4 class knows about the Fatima Children as well possibly your child might want to dress as either Lucia, Francisco, or Jacinta.

Dear Families,
Today, I loved having the children all dressed in their Halloween orange , black, and purple attire! We are all looking forward to the dance! This week was a very successful week of celebrating the Saints and learning more about pumpkins! We engaged in making a jack-o-lantern by creating a jack -o- lantern face using shapes we voted on and taking out the seeds. Then we counted the amount of seeds in each of our clump of pulp! We ended up having 567 seeds!

On October 31, we are celebrating All Saints' Day. That is the truth of Halloween, all Hallo-Eve, is celebrating the Saints that loved our Lord, Jesus, during their lives. The children can come to school in a Saint Costume. We have been learning about Our Lady of Fatima and the three children she visited for 6 months. The children's names are Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco. I have included Catholic Icing link on the email. This website has simple Saint Costume Ideas.

Dear Families,
Dear Families,
We are starting to incorporate some Autumn Art Activities into our small group time. The children enjoyed drawing and painting a pumpkin this week. I have posted some pictures of them working on this project. Also, in the month of October we dedicate ourselves to praying a rosary more often because October is dedicated to our Blessed Mother. Both preschool classes are creating a rosary by painting paper beads with watercolors. Then children will build the rosary with these beads while learning to pray a decade of rosary. Then we will display it on our bulletin board along with our painted image of Mary, our Blessed Mother.

We have had a great week learning the sound of the letter Ff and learning how to write it using Fundations. The children are impressing Miss Ramos and I with their math sense. We have some solid counters that know that the last number counted is How Many. Then we have matched up the number with the counted amount. Today the children have a parent information handout about next week's Math Building Blocks and a small assignment. There is another manila paper and another handout for Week 4 lesson on shapes. The children will be building a toy out of shapes. Please try to return on Monday, September 29.

Thank you all for attendance at Back to School Night. I appreciate your time. It was an opportune time to share with you the daily routine of our day. I enjoyed hearing your thoughts about your children's daily experiences here. The day is active with independent activities, and collaborative activities. I have been reflecting on some comments how some of the children do not have much to say about their day. I know the children have been processing much learning throughout the day and I think that after school the children are taking a brain break.

However, inquiring about the day at a later time, dinner, getting ready for bed, and asking a direct question what activity did you do in Small Groups, Recess / Outdoor Play , or Morning Work ? Did you sing any songs? This delayed time and direct questions might help with learning more about how your child is enjoying his or her day at school.

We had a great first week in preschool! The children are working on learning the procedures of the classroom and fostering school behavior within the classroom and in the hallways. On Thursday, we had our second practice fire drill and the children seemed to move a little quicker. Yes, we are making progress. It clearly showed today with our first Acushnet Fire Station Drill. The children did great!

At Morning Work we have been learning how to make our first letter of our name using manuscript paper. That is the same paper that went home with you at Orientation for your child/children to practice his or her name.

At small groups we've been talking about our names and what letter starts our name. We read the story, Designed by God so I Must Be Special. Then the children tried to use shapes to draw a self-portrait. This activity went well. I learned they know pretty well this aspect of Geometry. The portraits developed into portraits of themselves and the people they love, their family. We've been learning in Character Strong about kindness. The children are showing many times a day acts of kindness. Next week, we continue with Kindness and not using the word, kill.

We are learning how to be a student at meeting, calendar, and story time, as well. The children are learning and responding well. I've noticed that responding to a teacher when call in some children is not on the first time. I am working to improve the children to respond most times the first time when his or her name is called. Also, taking turns to talk.
