Welcome to Pre-K4!! I am Ms. Murphy and I am so excited to begin this year in Pre-K4! While I know this year will be different and challenging I am confident we will have a great year filled with lots of learning, fun, and social and emotional growth. This is my 15th year teaching in Catholic School and my 9th year teaching here at Saint Ignatius. I have taught both Kindergarten and Pre-K4 and love being able to set the foundation for learning. I believe every child learns their own way and structure my classroom to make sure this is met on a daily basis. There is nothing we cannot face together and I know this year will be wonderful, so enjoy every moment and be prepared to watching learning and growing first hand with us!

Important Reminders/ Needs
Important Reminders/ Needs
In light of the recent COVID updates, we are following new protocols to keep the children safe. Some of the things we will be doing is extra hand washing, staying in our seats, splitting in groups for eating for 15 minutes and playing outside with 6 feet protocol. We ask that you please remember to send in an extra mask or two for your child, so we can change them if they were to get wet, dirty, etc. Also, we ask that you please send them in with a book to help make transition periods a lot easier for them. Since we are eating in 15 minute time periods, simplifying their healthy snack and lunch would help us greatly. For example, cut up apples, bananas, and packaged crackers. We thank you for all of your help with this! Since we are doing extra cleaning and wiping down in the classroom, if you are able to send in disinfecting wipes or spray we would greatly appreciate it.

This week, I will continue with our Assessments as we reassess the letters of the alphabet and even our sounds. We will be sending home flashcards of the letters your child needs to practice recognizing. Please take 5-10 minutes a day to practice these letters. We will be assessing both upper and lowercase letters this time and as always thanks for your help with this.
