Easter and Future News

This week has gone by quickly! We have been learning about the meaning of Easter, Jesus and other Easter traditions. The four year old preschool participated in the Cross Walk. We walked through town and made various stops to signify the stations of the cross. Three year old preschool made their own empty tomb biscuits. Four year old preschool and kindergarten also made their own. The empty tomb biscuit classroom snack. The marshmallow represents the pure body of Jesus. As a teaching tool, children can dip a marshmallow in the butter and the cinnamon-sugar mixture to represent the burial oil and spices that were used on Jesus’ body. 


The last day of preschool will be Thursday May 24, 2018. This was the original date and the snow days did not effect the end date of preschool.
