Preschool Anyone?

Hello Prospective Preschool Parents,

The end of the summer vacation is quickly approaching and the new school year will be upon us, much to my 3rd grader's dismay! I know this is a busy time of year for all of us, but I just wanted to touch base with you and see where we stand on the upcoming preschool year. 

We are only a few short weeks away from our first day of class and would like to have a final roster as soon as possible. If you have not sent in your registration form yet but are planning to I would like to make sure I have all registration forms in by Friday, July 27th. A minimum enrollment will be required for this class so please let me know soon to secure your spot. Thank you to those who have already sent in your registration!     

Just as a reminder the details for this class are a tuition of $70 a month for 2 days a week for 2 1/2 hours and class will be held on Tue. & Thurs. from 9:00am - 11:30am. There is a $10 discount per child for families enrolling multiple children. Our preschool open house/meet the teacher is scheduled for Friday, August 10th at 10am and our first day of class will be Tuesday, August 14th! 

I am very excited about this new year and can't wait to have you and your child start this adventure with me! As always please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have and I hope to hear from you soon! 

Thank you,

~Miss Rachel

I'm stuck on you

I wish I pulled my camera out for the first two classes of our Summer of Science but it just slipped my mind so we'll just have to start here. These are a few pic's from our magnets week. 

These first few our of a magnet race... 

they had to "push" their magnets across the floor using a larger wand magnet. 

  We got to see the forces in action and we also got to see these little scientist need a few driving lessons to help them stay in their own lane! 

We also had plenty of time just to play  explore with the magnets!

We even got to be magicians and made them magically move on top of a wood surface while moving another underneath.  

Thanks for learning with us!

SUMMER OF SCIENCE

Creative Kids "Summer of Science" Day Camp

Summer of Science Day Camp is for children ages 3-6 years old and has 7 one week themes. 

We will meet in the afternoons 3 days a week, Tue/Wed/Thurs, from 2:00-3:30 pm. 

Tuition will be $15 a week and can be collected on a week by week basis.  

The themes for summer day camps are:

At a Glance - (May 31st - June 2nd)  Seeing things grow larger or smaller by looking through a lens is an amazing thing to young children. In this unit, they will explore and compare how natural things change when seen through magnifying glasses, microscopes, mirrors, and binoculars.

I'm Sensing Something - (June 7-9th) Everything we know comes to us through our senses. This unit contains materials that allow the children to learn about taste, touch, sight, sound, and smell. They will also learn about differing abilities and how people overcome the loss of one of their senses. Not only will they experience new and exciting things they will learn how their different senses help them understand the world around them.

I'm Stuck on You - (June 14-16th) Magnets are magical to children. In this unit, they will explore magnetic forces by using a variety of magnets on metal and non-metal objects. They will learn how magnets work, what they work on, and some uses for magnets in the real world.

It's going to blow! - (June 21-23rd) You can't have a summer of science with building your very own volcano, In these experiments your children will observe the chemical reaction of baking soda and vinegar in different situations and predict it's outcome.

What's the matter? - (June 28-30th) During this class children will discover the difference between a solid, liquid and gas as well as experiment with mixtures and compounds. Children will also investigate the properties of a mystery substance called Goo and will use their scientific process skills to investigate the substance and determine if it is solid, liquid, or gas.

Kids' Kitchen - (July 5-7th) During Kids’ Kitchen, children will learn about the food pyramid and how to make healthy food choices. They will sample different types of foods, as they prepare recipes for healthy snacks. 

Animal Antics - (July 12-14th)  Children will learn all about animals and their homes. Not only will they learn about animals in their own neighborhoods, but they will explore animals that live in areas faraway. Animal Antics gives children opportunities to explore the habitats of animals, what animals eat, what sounds they make and how they move. 

Class size is limited! 

Contact me today to reserve your child's spot!

Y not?
