Welcome to PreSchool with Ms. Chiaia!

PreSchool Class 2016-2017

Welcome

We've joined together as classmates
as the new year begins...
A year full of learning,
While we become friends.
We'll share and be kind,
as we work and play.
And our friendships will grow
with each passing day!

In the PreSchool classroom, life is all about learning how to work with others. In the past few weeks, we have been encouraging teamwork, communication, collaboration, and cooperation. In the classroom we have been engaged in fun and inviting ways. We have read many books on teamwork, cooperation and friendship. In addition, a few activities we have been promoting are; building with blocks, working on floor puzzles, art activities and other fun games. Cooperative games help foster and encourage collaborative skills and teach sportsmanship as children play by helping each other. These games emphasis on fun and teamwork rather than resulting in a win. This group is amazing at “Talking it out!” They are learning to wait their turn, ask for help and try new things. Also, by using nice words and asking or making a plan with a friend usually results in a very positive conversation and a rewarding feeling. Great work PreSchool!
