Welcome to Little Knights Preschool

 at St. Joseph Catholic School!

“Called to Discipleship: Be Christ’s Light”

 

 

I am excited to be a part of the St. Joseph Catholic School community as the new full day preschool teacher working with four year olds. I look forward to being a part of such a positive and caring academic community where body, mind and spirit are nurtured and developed.
 
Although I earned my education degree in Ohio, I have been a preschool teacher in Libertyville for the last 15 years. I love teaching preschool children and seeing the world through their eyes. I believe a warm and loving environment both encourages children to learn as well as helps them gain self-confidence. I am a strong believer in learning through play as well as hands on learning to help foster a child’s creativity and development. I look forward to a positive, loving, and wonderful year with your child!

This afternoon we read The Little House.  We talked about the differences between the country and the city.  The boys and girls cut out and made their own little houses!
We learned about clouds this morning.  Big fluffy clouds are called cumulus clouds and are beautiful weather clouds.  Cirus clouds are high wispy clouds which aren’t sign of fair weather.  The clouds we see today are stratus clouds.  They bring rain or snow.  
the boys and girls used clouds/shaving cream and made their own clouds and practiced cloud writing their names.
Morning Media with Mrs Hoglund.  She talked to the boys and girls about the upcoming solar eclipse.  She also read us a few poems since this is poetry month.  The boys and girls checked out books!
The boys and girls also had their religion lesson God Made Butterflies.  They each made a life cycle of a butterfly strip.  They did a great job putting the pieces in order.
On this snowy April Spring day we had our Scholastic Magazine lesson about butterflies.   The boys and girls learned about the life cycle of a butterfly.   They also learned what the word metamorphosis means!  
This afternoon the boys and girls did a 16 word April Write the  Room.  Many of them found all 16 words and wrote them on their sheet.  We are so proud of this handwriting.
