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 20 years and at St. Joseph Catholic School for the last 5 years.  I am excited to begin my 6th year at St. Joseph teaching preschool.  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!

We read “The Mitten” by Jan Brett.   The boys and girls then had to figure out the best way they could all fit into a Mitten.   They tried lying down, sitting up with knees pulled up, and curled up in a ball.   They were able to fit the most preschoolers in a Mitten by curling up into a tight ball.
In Afternoon Enrichment we played “Mitten Mitten on the Ground”.  The boys and girls took turns picking a letter and making the letter sound.
Everyone was excited to check out a library book this week!   The children will keep them for one week.
