Our Christmas Show was nothing short of Magical! Thank you for sharing this special night with us and making memories that I hope you will hang onto for a long time to come!
We are so proud of each and every one of our sweet little angels, including the ones who were not able to attend. All of our little friends worked so hard to learn their songs and delivered a wonderful performance! I honestly couldn't be more proud of them!
We have been practicing finding own own names and placing them on our attendance tree.
J is for Jaguar
We loved decorating our Class Christmas Tree!
Master Builders back at it! This is our tallest creation yet!!!
Be sure to check out the adorable ornaments that we hung on our Learning Center Christmas Tree right outside our front door!
J is for jellyfish! Ask your little stinger to demonstrate what jelly fish do with their tentacles!
4 is for sure so cool to paint, write and count. Ask your little mathematician to show you four fingers!
We did such a great job sewing our Christmas Stockings!
Our Stockings are now on display on our PreK-3 Fireplace Mantel!
Show and Tell Fridays continue to be a HUGE HIT! Our public speaking skills have developed so incredibly well! We continue to be so surprised with our little presenters!!!
Making Memories....
(took a lot of behind the scenes hard work! lol)
A GREAT BIG THANK YOU to Mrs. McDonald for all of her hard work helping us prepare for this special night including (but definitely not limited to) providing all the yummy cookies for both shows and making an emergency trip to Lowes to pick up more lights and light clips!! She worked a 13 hour work day with a bright smile on her face even though I know (without her ever complaining) that she had frozen, throbbing feet and an aching back! She didn't stop all day doing whatever needed to be done to make the Shows run as smoothly as possible! I CANNOT FIND THE WORDS TO EXPRESS MY ENORMOUS GRATITUDE!! We LOVE YOU Mrs. McDonald!
Mrs. Matthews is also due an enormous thank you for providing and preparing the delicious hot chocolate for both shows. She was the behind the scenes master chef boiling and mixing three crock pots full of her special recipe hot chocolate! Our room still has a chocolate cloud floating about! Of course her contributions went well above and beyond her barista skills... she was the glue that held the PreK-4 performance together in the unexpected absence of their classroom teacher. Great Job Mrs. Matthews! The Shows wouldn't have been a success without all of your hard work and dedication!
An enormous thank you also goes out to our teenage helpers: Mrs Matthews' son, Mrs Reed's daughter and friend, and my daughter and her friends! It certainly is a special sight to see all these hard working teens give up a Friday Night to come help our STS Preschool Community!
And lastly, I would like to thank my husband for rescheduling his work commitments to make time to come to STS to hang all our beautiful Christmas Lights and for setting up our Snowman! I know it wasn't easy to do especially during this time of the year! Thank you for making our stage look so magical and for spreading your unparalleled holiday cheer!
