To help the preschoolers improve their motor and letter writing skills, they created a mitten with their names. They had to cut out the mitten pattern and glue a variety of colored felt squares onto their mitten. Then they had to write each letter of their names on puffy cloud shapes that had to be cut out and glued onto the cuff of their mitten.
Today we will explore 6 to 10 yoga postures in a flow that challenge the strength balance, and concentration/focus of our preschoolers.
These postures will be: plank child’s pose downward, facing dog, up dog, airplane dances, pose, and boat pose.
Our Martial Arts technique will consist of round house kick and upper block also practice punches.
Run: to include racing to the fence and back

The Preschool created a bear hibernating art activity that supports their winter curriculum. This activity requires coloring, tracing, cutting, gluing, and creating snow from cotton rounds; therefore, it reinforces the development of motor skills and hand eye coordination.
We will begin our class with the hula hoop for fun exercises and activities.
Stretches to include splits point to toes-
Paper focused roundhouse kicks to be drilled by everyone-
Jogging to different parts of the playground as a fun exercise-

Lesson Comments
today was fun. Remi joined our class and was a great helper. It was the first time I had seen him so calm and focused. He enjoyed working out and helping with the little ones.
The preschoolers used good motor skills today to create their Happy New Year 2026 project. They had to write each letter of their name on a paper strip, then color the strips, and cut them out. They also had to color their Happy New Year 2026 balloon and cut that out. Finally, they glued each colored letter strip spelling their name to the balloon. We reviewed good control over our marking tool and staying in the lines. We also reviewed good scissor safety practice, and I helped each student on the correct finger placement in the scissor's handle.
Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer, Stained Glass, and Hanukkah
Lesson Outline
The little artists created a Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer out of felt using a step-by-step process. Then they each created another stained glass design to be hung in the window. Last, they met Chef John who prepared potato latkes for them with applesauce and sour cream. We learned about the miracle of Hanukkah.
