Week 23 February 3rd-7th

 Monday February 3rd

We started our week by continuing to practice counting syllables and breaking words into syllables.  We then practiced the letter Oo and the sound, as well as sounding out short words.

During Religion, we read a story about a baby's baptism and talked about some of the things we already know about baptism as a sacrament.

We finished the day by talking about groundhogs and how groundhogs day is celebrated.

Tuesday February 4th

Today was all about our 100th day of school.  We used paint dabbers to color the number 100 and practiced counting all the way to 100.




We finished our day with a 100th day of school coloring page and read the story "100th Day Worries" as a class.

Wednesday February 5th

We continued on our letters with the letter Dd and practiced writing uppercase D.  

During religion, we watched a video about baptism that discussed the key features of a baptism.  Students were so excited to see the baptismal gown that I wore as a baby.

We finished our day with a Valentine's day craft.  Students got to pick two paint colors to use for their art.  Students then smooshed the paper together to cover the heart in paint.





Thursday February 6th

We continued on the letter Dd and practiced writing a lowercase d.  We also talked about how important it is to make sure we write the correct letter the correct way by mixing up Bb and Dd and reading the different words in sentences.

During religion, we talked about things that priest might wear in the church.

At the end of the day, we finished reading Mummies in the Morning from the Magic Treehouse series and Started Pirates Past Noon.


Friday February 7th

For P.E. today, students were split into 5 groups (4 quarters and half time) to participate in team warmups, cornhole, bean bag toss, ping pong throws and a halftime performance.


Instead of nap, students got to watch "Airbud: Golden Receiver" to celebrate the Superbowl.

We finished the day with the Valentine edition of our My Big World magazine.

  Where do i even begin?  I want to thank all of the parents for helping your child be successful in this first "week" of school!  I am so proud of all of my students for how quickly they have adapted to this next adventure!  I will post on our classroom website once a week (I will try to have the weekly post up by Saturday evenings).  I will also try to do a better job of taking pictures during activities so that you as parents can have a better look into our classroom. Wednesday August 14th The students were filled with both excitement and nervousness so our first day was much more relaxed.  The main goal for the day was for the students to get a feel for the classroom, as well as getting to know their fellow classmates and making new friends.  We successfully made it through our first ever morning meeting where we discuss the days of the week, month, weather, and do a morning prayer.  The whole class was attentive and participated!  A huge...

  Monday August 19th Monday we started talking about all of our curriculum work.  We introduced Larry the letter lion to help us reviewing and introducing our handwriting buddies.  We talked all about Stanley stick and how he starts at the top and goes straight down to the bottom.  We also talked about the letter A and made a list of words that all start with the a sound. During religion class, we talked about the Bible and what it is made up of.  We then talked about Jesus and who he is and what his mission on Earth was (spreading God's love).  The students met our classroom stuffed Jesus and got to see where to find him in our classroom.   After recess, we had a popsicle party to celebrate a friend in Miss Nikki's class who had a birthday, as well as his sister in our class.  We then started in on our emotion lesson by reading "A Little Scribble Spot" and talking about what colors match each emotion.  We then finished our day with our ...

  Hello preschool families!  I am so excited to be your child's teacher this year! My name is Miss Harley Hagenhoff and this is my first year teaching!  I recently graduated from Missouri Valley College in December of 2023 with a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education.  Before that, I graduated from Helias Catholic High School in May of 2020.  I am the oldest of 7 kids and have two fur babies, Dakota and Elsa.  If I am not in the classroom, I am typically finding some sort of craft to do or playing with my puppies! There are a few things that I would like to share with parents so that they have it for their own information.  As a preschool, we use the "Story of God's Love" series for our religion to share stories of the bible in a way that is designed for children.  For social and emotional growth, we use "A Little Spot of Emotions and Feelings" to teach children about their emotions in a healthy way.  Within my classroom, we use a phonics a...
