Bike 🚴 Day
Oh me oh my! Today was Bike 🚲 Day and all our friends were SUPER HAPPY 😃! All this morning’s conversations have centered around the colors of their bikes 🚲, helmets 🪖, etc. All of them have been so excited 😆!
Once they were outside, voices got loud and hearts ♥️ started to be so fast with anticipation! All of our big kids were so happy and had so much fun! This was the best day ever 🙌🏾!
Madison Holland
Every month we’ve announced a Featured Teacher. This honor and award do not come lightly or easily. Every featured teacher is nominated by his/her peers and awarded a cash prize, a gift, a special parking spot, and bragging rights!
This month's featured teacher is Ms. Madison. Madison has been with AOPP for 5-6 years. She has been in the PreK class the entire time. She is very dedicated, determined, and motivated to teach, encourage and create better humans out of all her students.
She has devoted so much time to make sure they are ready for kindergarten and beyond. She pushed her kids to be their BEST by preparing them with Kindergarten Boot Camp.
This award was literally meant for Ms. Madison and we are more than grateful to have her a part of the AOPP Family!
Petting Zoo!!
This month’s theme
for PreK is Animals. They learn, discuss, and participate in activities
surrounding animals. To incorporate their curriculum into the calendar, we invited the Petting Zoo
to visit! This was an incredibly good choice.
Every class, including
our transition class was able to participate in petting, feeding, and some “just-looking” at the farm animals! Their energy was so high, and they were all more
than excited.
Happy Good Friday & Happy Easter 🐰
This week at school, we celebrated Easter to the fullest! All our little friends were so excited about the fun Easter 🐣 Activities, the Easter Egg 🥚Hunt, & to meet the Easter Bunny 🐰himself!
Having the Easter Egg 🥚 Hunt on the playground was the best! All the classes were able to hunt for Easter Eggs 🥚 during their play ground time!
We also had treats for our little friends (kids) and big friends (teachers) to take home 🏠 !
Hope everyone has a Happy Easter 🐰 !
Infant Music Class
This week’s calendar activities were all inclusive! We’ve realized a lot of times our infants 👶 are unable to participate in a lot of our events and activities so we made a day just for them.
Planting Flowers 🌸
Daylight Saving is this Sunday and Spring will be coming on next Saturday! To bring in both, we decided to send home 🏡 a “Plant a Flower” kit for all our little friends and their families. We’ve also challenged our parents to keep us updated on their Instagram of their progress! We want to bring in good weather and spring together!
Dr.
Seuss Week
This week is Read 📖 Across America Week as well as the celebration of the great Dr. Seuss! Here at Powell Place, we pride ourselves to making sure reading is just as important as play! Everyday this week, our friends participated in reading with their teachers as well as a activity with the entire school.
Monday, we started a
book donation with the parents and staff. Our school has partnered with Book ‘Em to meet the needs of those whom may not have books. Spreading knowledge and bringing awareness is our goal.
Tuesday, we had a virtual librarian visit and we listened to some Dr. Seuss books read by our teachers.
Wednesday, we had a visit from the Cat in The Hat himself (herself)! All our friends were super happy about this visit.
Thursday, we had a special goldfish snack while listening to Dr. Seuss’ One Fish, Two Fish Red Fish, Blue Fish.
To end the week, we hosted our classic pajama and movie 🎥 day! We watched Dr. Seuss The Lorax!
This was one awesome week!
