Preschool - January 2026

Hello, Fabulous Families! We are excited that February is almost here and we get to celebrate LOVE. During National Lutheran Schools Week we shared why we love coming to school. We love God. We love praying. We love recess. We love our friends. We love our teachers. We love snacks. We love playing with toys. We love birthday treats. Our list of what we love goes on and on as we find joy in all we do. 

We are learning how to write letters/draw pictures to give to friends and family. We are copying simple words and phrases as we practice letter formation, and beginning sounds of words. Our backpacks and cubbies are full of creative works! We have definitely learned it is amazing to give to others--filling everyone with joy!

Snow, did you know children five and younger always want more snow? We have been disappointed to only have a few days of flurries in January but are excitedly waiting for more snow adventures! We have learned a lot about snow from how each snowflake is uniquely made, making our own snow and snowflakes, magnifying snow water to see all the particles (dirty bits!), creating snowmen, and reading about all the fun snowmen have in our many winter books. We love snow!

We are writing numbers, making patterns, and measuring with multiples many winter items. We are exploring how to create an igloo with sugar cubes, build styrofoam blocks and to follow a recipe to make snow dough. Math is “snow” much fun!

We began our study of Light at the end of January and will continue into February learning about natural and manmade light. We are exploring how light can shine through some objects or be blocked by other objects. Did you know that the light of Jesus can shine through everyone who believes in Him? We are called to share His love and word with everyone; preschoolers love to sing “This Little Light of Mine” for all to learn about God’s great love for us!

There is a love that surpasses all; it is the love of God who sent his only Son to die for us so we may have eternal life! We are truly blessed!

Prayers from Preschool!
