3 year old classes

Our three year olds are almost completely phased in to full time.  We have found great success by slowly adding time to their day. They are able to separate from their caregiver and gain self confidence in a new surrounding.  The children are learning the classroom routine, exploring all areas of the classroom and meeting new school friends. Try to ask specific questions based on what the teacher’s have posted on the board.  For example if you ask who they played with, they probably cannot remember their new friend’s names.  If you ask, “What color rectangle did you glue?” or “What did make with the playdough?”, you may have more success.  As the children become more comfortable, they will start revealing more of their day to you.  They are currently learning shapes and colors and learning how to follow one and two step directions at the art table using paint, glue and crayons. 
 
Our 3 year old Meet the Teacher Conferences are scheduled for the weeks of October 15^th through the 25th.  This conference is for you to get to know your child’s teacher, learn more about our 3 year old program and hear about your child’s adjustment to school.  Please be aware they are 15 minute time slots.  See the Parent Board for sign ups soon.  If you are unable to take off from work, the Teachers are happy to have a phone conference; however it is most convenient to do this during the time slots posted on the board.  Just sign up with your cell phone number and request a phone conference.
