Religion:
~This week we will celebrate Pentecost! We will learn about the amazing day God sent His special helper, the Holy Spirit, to Jesus’ friends.
Because Pre-K kids learn best through their senses, we use the ideas of wind and fire to understand that even though we can’t see the Holy Spirit, we can feel His love and see the good things He helps us do!
Try This At Home: "The Wind Walk"
The next time you are outside or driving in the car, look for signs of the wind. Point out leaves shaking in the trees, a flag blowing, or hair moving in the breeze.
Remind your child: "Just like we can't see the wind, but we can see what it does—we can't see the Holy Spirit, but we can see His love when we are kind, helpful, and loving to others!"
Philosophy and Curriculum
Our philosophy is that through our teaching, we ensure that each child is loved, nurtured and safe while growing in all areas of development. Not only will the children learn academic skills but also a strong, age-appropriate understanding of our Catholic faith. We are strong believers in implementing an emergent style of lesson plans early in the school year while we get to know each child’s area of interest and understanding. Throughout the school year there will be guided lessons that are individualized to meet each child's specific needs.
Our curriculum is one that follows the West Virginia Early Learning Standards through the use of the state chosen, Creative Curriculum. Ongoing assessments and observations of the children are conducted during the school year. We believe that having open communication between teacher and families is needed to achieve a successful year for your child! Parent/Teacher conferences will be held during the school year, in addition to these, we, Pre-K 4 Teachers, will make ourselves available to meet with you if you have further questions or concerns. We look forward to a wonderful, fun and exciting school year!
God Bless!
