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 22 years and at St. Joseph Catholic School for the last 6 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!

A beginning sound Write the Room.  The boys and girls had to look for 16 picture cards around the room.  The wrote the beginning letter in the correct box.
Our LAST letter book page.  Letter Z is for Zebra!  The boys and girls did a great job on the last page.  The completed letter books will be sent home the last day of school!
Last week the boys and girls painted large rocks.   Today we placed them around the border of the preschool garden which is in the back of the school.
Every year our preschool classes have painted rocks to add to the border!
This afternoon we learned about the Moon.  The moon revolves around the Earth.  It takes 28 days for the Moon to make one turn around the moon.  The moon is smaller than the Earth, does not have air or water or life. The moon doesn’t have gravity so everything floats.  
We made soft and fluffy moon dough this afternoon using hair conditioner and corn starch.
This morning we learned a little bit about symmetry.  A butterflies wings are symmetrical.  When folded in half the design on one wing will match the other wing.  The boys and girls cut out a butterfly and designed symmetrical wings.
Our last letter day!  Letter Zz!   Z is for ziploc bag, zipper, zebra, zinnia, zero and of course our very own ZOYA!
