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 a book about families called Quinta, Day and Night by: Nina Cumpiano.  There were a lot of opposite words in the story.  We talk about other opposite words.   We also made a chart comparing the number of people we all have in our families.  Most of us have 4 or 5 people in our families.  The smallest family had 3 people and the biggest family had 6!
We ended the afternoon by playing outside with Mrs. Beyer’s class on a beautiful, windy, and sunny day!
.....And then they were all crowned Kings and Queens of the Wild Things.   Mrs. Feely had to bow to all the Kings and Queens!
We read Where The a Wild Things Are in Afternoon Enrichment.   We learned some new words: gnashed and to cause a rumpus.
We had Media with Mrs. Hogslund.  The boys and girls were read a story about a boy named Max who plays soccer but couldn’t kick the ball.  After media we finished our religion lesson about the Bible.  The boys and girls heard the story about David and Goliath.
Landon was our Special Person today.   He read all his friends names in the class, helped with the calendar, and did our weather report!
Afternoon Enrichment worked on sorting elephants two different ways.  We also continued our study of Letter E.  E is for egg.  The boys and girls had to piece together an egg Humpty Dumpty puzzle.  The added some bandaids to hold his cracks together and finished with some watercolors.
After lunch, we had Gym with Mrs. Beyer’s class.  We had so much fun hula hooping, riding the trikes, and playing with the balls.
Since it’s letter E week we had shredded paper and eggs filled with erasers in the sensory table.  The boys and girls had fun finding and then sorting all the erasers and small eggs.
The boys and girls made their own Spookley Pumpkins.  We talked about what makes each of us special and unique.
The boys and played Eyeball Bingo.  They took turns picking letters and then marking them on their sheets with sticky eyeballs.
