Miss Lori & Miss Kristine’s March 10, 2023 Red Robin Pre-K Newsletter

This week we moved on to the letter “Tt”. Each of your children made a “tepee” for their Pictionary Book. We have many “Tt” pictures on our letter board and we all know our friends Tara, Talia and Timmy begin with the letter of the week. We had a very special visitor this week!! Tallulah T. Tuttle came to our school to teach us about proper manners during a “T” party! She was dressed in rainbow colors from head to toe and she enjoyed dancing the tango for us! Tallulah showed everyone how to hold their “pinky’s up” when drinking from their water bottles and how to delicately wipe the corners of their mouth after eating! She gave all of the children special “T” cookies which looked just like teddy grahams! Each time one of the girls and boys had to get up they had to say “ta-ta” or “tootles”! Needless to say, the laughter in our room was so great that some of us were in tears!!!

We have begun learning the terminology for many of our body parts. We learned about the words Skull, Skeleton, Bones, Muscles, Veins and Ligaments. We have learned that our heart is the biggest muscle. We also learned that each hand has 27 bones and our entire body has 206!!! We took turns feeling our heart rate at rest and then again after running in place for two minutes! We also watched our chests expand as we all took deep breaths in and filled our lungs with air and then released the air and saw as our chests went back down! I have a large amount of very explicit books, some which are three dimensional and very detailed. All of the children are completely fascinated as we learn and listen to these books.

Our class has begun making their Human Body look like themselves! The children are looking into a mirror and drawing their face as they see it. They are also making their hair either short, long, curly or straight, just as they like to wear their hair. Next week we will continue in more detail about our brain and our stomach, in addition to speaking about our muscles, ligaments and veins.

Have an unusual and unique weekend with your children! Next week we will move on the letter “Uu”.

Warmly,

Miss Lori and Miss Kristine

CHOOSE RED ROBIN WITH CONFIDENCE

Of course, parents should trust their own experience and instincts when choosing a school or camp. However, the critical decision about with whom to entrust your child should also be based on the program’s license, accreditations, and commitment to safety. Red Robin holds many such distinctions. They are a source of pride for us and can be a source of confidence for you.

Red Robin elects to maintain its accreditation with the American Camp Association (ACA). This commitment requires Red Robin to adhere to many stringent standards and inspections, which help parents select camps that meet industry-accepted and government-recognized regulations.

In addition, our school is licensed by New York State.

We are also chartered by the New York State Education Department-Board of Regents.

We are permitted to operate by the Nassau County Health Department.

Red Robin is a peanut and tree nut free facility, one of many safeguards implemented to protect our students and campers.
