Dear Parents:

Thank you for your patience during this difficult time. It is highly recommended that families develop a daily routine for children while at home. (see attached for an example, adjust according to your family’s needs)

• Read to your child every day!
• This is not a time for play dates, children should get outside every day for sunshine and fresh air.

• Provide crayons, scissors, paint, playdough and even wet sand. This will help with their fine motor development.
• Below are helpful websites, but please limit screen time, do not discount the value of free play for your child.

MOVEMENT AND MOTION
gonoodle.com
cosmickids.com
Kids Zumba
Search youtube.com for music and movement for preschool

LITERATURE/STORIES
getepic.com
starfall.com
abcmouse.com
storylineonline.net

We will keep all families in our prayers and ask you to do the same.
 
May God bless you,
Cheverus Catholic Preschool and PreK Teachers

Hello, Pre-K7 Families!

We have completed one full week of school and so far, all are doing well!  I am going to use this page to post a monthly calendar and newsletter so that you can all see what we have planned for each month.  So, check back at the beginning of each month to see what we will be up to.  I will also be posting photos of what we do in class.  I will only post photos of the children who return their photo release forms giving me permission to post their photos.  So, if you would like to have your child included in these photos please make sure to return the photo release form.  

If at anytime you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me at leah.okeefe@cheverusschool.com.

I am really excited for this year and to get to know all of you and your children better!
