Creative Curriculum
Unit of Study: Trees
At the end of October, we began our new unit by asking students:
- What do we know about trees?
- What do we want to find out?
- What things are made from trees?
This month we will investigate:
- What are the parts of the tree?
- How do trees grow and change?
- What grows and lives in trees?
November Math Focus
Dear Pre-K Families,
This month our class is learning about Shapes and Patterns.
- Shapes: circles, squares, and triangles
- Patterns: designs that repeat over and over
Here are some fun activities that are easy to doat home to help reinforce these concepts:
- Go on a “shape hunt” with your child at your home, or look through magazines, pointing out different shapes you see, for example; a clock (circle), a book (square), or a pizza slice (triangle).
- Make patterns with items found around the house, such as lining up utensils on a tabletop, such as fork, spoon, fork, spoon.
Thank you for working with us. If you have any ideas that you would like to share, please let us know.

Family Activities
Try making a family recipe together at home. Cooking provides opportunities for children to measure, problem-solve, develop new vocabulary, use fine motor skills such as stirring, mixing, mashing, and more!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
