Our Preschool follows the Creative Curriculum in partnership with the Illinois Learning Standards for Early Childhood.  Science is an important part of the curriculum and something children find fascinating.  Our sweet potato is thriving with all the care and attention from the children.

 

The children and their Moms shared a very special day together.  Our Moms had an opportunity to observe the songs and projects the children prepared for them and share the art projects, snack and stories. They enjoyed playing with the things the children enjoy every day.  It is really a special experience for the family.

Potato bulbs are a good way to start our plant growing, but now it needs the soil in the pot to continue growing.  It is almost three feet long. We are starting to grow an avacado tree, so we'll keep you posted on its progress.
