For over 20 years I have been teaching preschool.  Last Friday, May 18th was graduation for my 4-5 year old classes. The children did a great job memorizing the program, singing and making wonderful memories.  It is always a hard time for me when each of them walk away.. knowing this is their last day of school.  I may never see them again.  I love these kids so much.  But today I received in the mail a graduation announcement from one of my students that Brought tears to my eyes, that reminded me that they will always know I love them, even if I never see them again....
        "After years of education, I can still always remember it started with you. Thanks for starting me off right and teaching me to love learning.  I love you Mrs. Doggett". From Calvin Derek fay (preschool student 2005).
I'm ok with them hugging me and saying goodbye now... And maybe never seeing me again because each child knows I love them and isn't that the greatest gift we can ever give to a child.
Thank you Calvin and thank you to the many students that send me graduation announcements. I look forward to seeing and hearing how you are all doing.

Mrs. Doggie

*just a note:  I have 5 openings left for next fall for the 3-4 year old class.  My 4-5 yr old classes are completely full.  If you are interested please call me @2084032715. Thanks

3-4 class- We are having such a great time. We are reviewing our letters, shapes, trying to count higher then 20, playing games that help us share and communicate.  Our letter this week is "v". They understood words like vase, van, volcano and the violin looked like a guitar.  That's why they are here...to learn the difference.  They are getting along well with each other and I am so excited to teach them next year.  In general the children love learning. May I remind you if your child is still struggling writing his/her name, please help them.  I have been teaching them a lot, but some of the kids need extra reinforcement.

4-5 classes-  we are also learning about the letter"v" this week.  The children are reading pretty well and they are writing their sight words too.  They love counting to 100, some are not only writing their first name, but their last name also.  This week they will be learning about their body parts (shoulders,heart, lungs, tongue,and about 15 more) on wed and Thursday I will let them hear their heartbeat with my stethoscope.  There are a couple of kids who can understand their phonics better then their letters and vice versa.  They will continue putting both together and the more they practice, the more they will make that connection.

The 4-5 graduations will be on May 18. I will put the rest of the info. In your Manila envelopes with your May calenders.  Please let me know if your child will not be here on May 18th.

I have a few class openings left for next fall but only on Monday-Wednesday.

Letter "u" will be introduced this coming week along with our Easter party on Wednesday and Thursday.  They will each have an Easter bucket, surprises, and color eggs.  It's going to be eggstra fun!  If you would like to bring any treats or surprises for 12 children you sure may. They really enjoy that.

Because of spring break in the school district, there will be no preschool on Monday April 1rst.
Have a wonderful Easter everyone🐰

Anyone interested in signing up for fall 2018-19 I only have Monday-Wednesday classes available.

What a great week we had...oh how I love your children!  The "t" party, of course with apple juice was so much fun. We talked about manners, ate cheese, tomatoes, olives,tiny sandwiches, pickles, lucky charms, grapes, shamrock homemade cookies, with a bunch of other sugar cookies frosted and sprinkled. After we visited and learned where to put the napkin and how to drink with the pinky finger extended we were fully ready to learn some dance moves.  The kids learned how to hokey pokey, line dance and of course walk.  With the students dressed up in princess dresses, beautiful Sunday dresses, suits, and bow ties they danced and danced!

We heard a bang upstairs and we found leprechaun foot prints going up the stairs.  Not only did the leprechauns not let us see them...they left us a black small pot of gold coins. When we went back to the preschool room they forgot their hats!  Luckily the leprechauns left enough hats for each child.

Thank you so much! I had the best birthday this week because I got to be near heaven with your children🎈

No school on Monday February 19th.. Presidents' Day.

Hey everyone.  We had a great week in preschool having the letter "Q" and our valentines party! Thank you so much moms for the cute and wonderful ideas you had.  The kids had a blast with all the candy and surprises they received.

4-5 year old classes:  As we have been reviewing the alphabet, phonics and upper/lower case letters, I have learned a lot from your children.  So I will mention this again.....if you really really want to help your child please, please every night before you put your child to bed, please have him/her sing the alphabet train song. They know it!  It will help them remember their letters and sounds. I am sad to hear from some children this isn't happening and that they don't even know where their alphabet train they made is.

Coming up soon will be our Tea Party in March 14th and 15th.  It's a day where the girls come dressed up in their princess dresses and the boys come dressed up in their Sunday best.  The kids will learn about manners, etiquette, and have a small luncheon and dance.  I promise I will take a lot of pictures.  On the same day we will be celebrating St. Patrick's day.

Please check your calendars to see when you are to bring treats for your child's class.  Thank you so much for having the best kids ever👍
