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!

The boys and girls went on a circle hunt around the room.  They had to search for small, medium and large circles.  Once they were on the board we sorted them by size and then made different designs.
Circle Day!  The boys and girls helped me list all the things they could think of that were circle shaped.  Great job!

Many thanks to Mrs Jamilkowski who came in and read 2 books for Colin’s Birthday.  She read a Pete the Cat book and David Goes to School. The boys and girls loved both books!
Music with Mr Showstead.  He had the boys and girls play a game of dancing to different beats.  Mr Showstead also showed us his guitar and let all the boys and girls practice strumming it.
