MWF Preschool News - Week of October 25

Do everything for the glory of God. 1 Cor 10:31

Dear MWF Families,

What an exciting week we had at preschool! We had an entire week full of activities and a Halloween celebration. This was also Letter D week, and many of our activities reflected our letter of the week. For Show and Share we had two students bring in a purple dolphin and a stuffed dog to share with the class. We listened to the story The Dinosaur by Anna Milbourne, played with dominoes, and practiced writing the letter D. We also practiced letter recognition and our fine motor skills when we played with our alphabet stencils.


Some of us practiced our scissor skills by cutting out rectangles and triangles.


We made a picture by dripping Red and Yellow paint onto paper with droppers and using a textured roller created a design on the paper.


We also played Duck, Duck, Goose and had a Silly Dance Contest.

This week we sang the Christian song “He’s Got the Whole World”, and we had a lot of fun taking turns at making up some of our own verses to the song. We discussed how GOD has everything in his hands and how he watches over each and every one of us. This week we listened to the story of “Daniel in the Lion’s Den” and “Jonah and the Fish” out of our Children’s Bible.

We also had so much fun celebrating Halloween this week. We participated in several activities to help celebrate this holiday. We painted spider webs on black, blue, or purple construction paper with white paint. We counted 100 spiders and creepy-crawly creatures on our One Hundred Poster. The children had so much fun dressing up in costumes for our Halloween Celebration and going Trick-or Treating throughout the church building. We had a wonderfully large snack followed by a paraded about in our Halloween costumes. Thank you to all of our parent volunteers who have made our Halloween Day such a success! Thanks to each of you for your contributions. We will see you at our Parent Conferences next week!
