February Highlights
February we explored Spring, a season of growth and new beginnings. In preschool we learned about the spring babies in the animal world around us ,we learned all the names of the baby farm animals the children thought it was funny that a baby goat is called a kid. We also learned about the life cycle of a plant ,and the three things plants need soil, water and sun . We did some planting and took care of our plants and watched them grow.
We also celebrated Valentine's day and made some lovely shortbread hearts. The children told us all about the people they love and the things they love to do, eat, and watch on tv its safe to say they have a good understanding of the celebration of Valentines day.
The children enjoyed our beautiful Valentines day tuff tray that Linda prepared ,she's getting an expert at producing them.

Maria and Linda's group have been so busy they learned about spring also. They explored the farm during spring time and learned about all the babies born on the farm. They learned about the work the famer does during the spring months, They did some planting of spring bulbs and made some lovely spring flower pictures, we have talked about how the trees change during spring time and are lucky to have a large tree outside our window that we are watching waiting for some leaves to appear .
The children learned about the birds during spring time and made their own nest.
They also continued the talk boost program, all the children are really enjoying the games that are part of the program , we can see the benefits of talk boost on the children's concentration and focus as they fully engage in the sessions.
The children learned about valentines day and did some heart themed art activities and baking .
