The Solar System & Holidays!

Today we invited two wonderful women,one from the Adler Planetarium and the other from the Shedd aquarium,  to observe our classroom. During this time, the students pretended to be astronauts who traveled to outer space to learn all about our solar system. We read an outer space book from the Dr. Seuss collection, as well as recalled the 8 planets from memory. Our little astronauts then created their own solar system with construction paper. They colored all 8 planets, put them in the proper order, and made it so they could orbit around the sun! We had such a BLAST exploring on our rocket ship and learned so much! Thanks to Betsie and Jenn for coming to visit our classroom!

 

 

Below are pictures we took today by our holiday tree! The students are proudly holding their stockings they made for their families as a holiday gift!

 

As we say goodbye to Clyde, we welcome Shira!

As of today, Clyde will no longer be in the Noble Preschool. We want to thank Clyde for all the amazing memories and friendship in the past two years and wish him luck in the next step in his life!

 

Starting this Thursday, December 20th, we will begin transitioning Shira into the preschool. She will be with us full time as of Wednesday, December 26th! We are very excited to have Shira with us and look forward to becoming closer to a new friend!

 

We welcome Shira into the Noble Preschool!

We had such a wonderful time today while preparing for the holidays! The students worked very hard to create their own holiday stocking to bring home and share with their families! We wish you all a safe, beautiful, and happy holiday season! Thank you for the constant support in the Noble Preschool!
