We enjoyed a short week and hope everyone had a wonderful extra day at home with family! This week, our preschoolers have been hard at work learning about the letter Ll and continuing to build their social-emotional skills in the classroom. We are so proud of the growth we have seen in each of them! You can definitely tell that we are all becoming more comfortable with our classmates, teachers, and daily routines.

How appropriate that our religion lesson this week focused on Jesus and His friends! We had the opportunity to reflect on how we are all friends of Jesus and how we can bring that friendship into our classrooms each day. We talked about showing kindness, including others, helping our friends, and sharing God’s love with those around us.
