Rumney Preschool
Ms. Murray's Classes
Hi Families! Announcements:
MASKS: Starting on Monday, March 14th, masks will be optional at Rumney. I know this brings up a lot of big feelings, so please take some time for yourself to process this big change. Here are a few things summarized from Maria’s letter that you received this week:
We had a pretty wet beginning of the week! The MT class had a great time seeing each other after such a long break. They enjoyed playing outside in the giant puddles which were gone by Wednesday! The weather was extremely windy on Tuesday, so they got to play in the gym instead. I think the gym is everyone’s favorite place to play. The MT class got to play with spaghetti (the WTh class played with it last week). They were flexing their cutting skills while picking up the colored spaghetti and cutting it to little pieces. I’ve noticed that so many friends like to use scissors and use them in a meaningful way (example: getting scissors to open a bag at snack). While cutting at home, please encourage your child to have their thumb on top to guide them to holding scissors correctly. Sitting behind them in a chair and guiding them with your hand on their hand is a great way for younger kiddos to practice. Cutting with scissors can be tricky for kids this age, as they are building the muscles in their fingers. On Wednesday, it was pretty icy on the hill. We decided to trek over to the rock garden and they had a blast. They were jumping and climbing on the rocks. They were also picking up some of the smaller, albeit heavy rocks, trying to stack them. A few pals were individually struggling trying to pick them up, but then decided to work together and had success! On Thursday we played with shaving cream AND gelatin! Both had toys/manipulatives inside for them to dig out. They loved it! Ask Your Child: What was it like outside? What happens when the ice melts? How does the ice melt? Where did you play outside (playground, hill, rock garden). Enjoy your weekend, Deanna
