Congratulations to Ms. Jackie Kurcbard for being the "Apple of our Eye" for October! Thank you for everything you do for our school and for the positive impact you have in your Preschool classroom. We're so thankful to have you as a part of our team!
Q. What did the PreK'ers learn today?
A. We read the book, “Severe Weather by Jennifer Boothroyd.”
While playing classical music about a storm, the children used crayons to draw a picture of the weather they heard in the music. They were then asked which type of severe weather from the book, their picture looks like.
We have decided that October 1st is going to be Jackie K. Twinning day!! Happy October everyone!
Our little kiddos looked so cute celebrating their "Favorite Book Character Day"!!!

Welcome to our Magical Pumpkin Patch!! The kiddos were full of excitement, planting their "magical" pumpkin seeds. We can't wait to see what appears this afternoon!
We all like to create with the seasonal colors and images around us, and what better way to create this fall than with Autumn leaves?
"Turn leaves into insects! Use leaves, glue, and markers to transform leaves into the bodies of insects. Help your child glue leaves to the paper. Ask them about insects they know. Explain that some insects have antennae, legs, and wings. Add some of these features to the leaf body. Your child can also draw eyes or a mouth."

Do you think Primrose School of Tallgrass may be the place for your kindergartener? Find out more about our private kindergarten!
Primrose School of Tallgrass checks the boxes of a host of different opportunities that parents are looking for in a private kindergarten setting:
• Low student to teacher ratio: Teachers are enabled to work more closely with small groups of students, tailoring their instruction to individual needs with the low student to teacher ratio of 1:12.
• Spanish instruction: Children who attend Primrose receive daily Spanish classes called “Mucho Mundo,” which immerses children into the culture, customs and songs of the language.
• Thumbs Up! physical activities: Plenty of outdoor time, in the morning and afternoon, is allowed for students to take advantage of both organized activities and the state-of-the-art playgrounds at the school.
• Character development: Primrose has a program called Happy Hearts Character Development, which focuses on internalizing these traits in a way that small children can understand.
• Music classes: Harmony and Hearts is a program that is unique to the Primrose curriculum that not only engages students on a daily basis with music time, but also has an app for parents so that they can continue to enjoy musical lessons at home.
• Literacy and Math development: Primrose uses Benchmark Literacy to build solid foundations for reading and writing skills while the Big Idea Math Program helps students to learn about major mathematical ideas. Both programs are crucial to the kindergarten education program at the school.
• Parent partnerships: This is so key for any school, but Primrose puts a priority on this aspect of their program through making their Leadership Team available at any time for parents as well making sure that parents have the opportunity for face-to-face conversations with teachers during morning drop off and afternoon pickup.
Late bloomers and birthdays
Another reason why parents may consider private kindergarten over public is if their child misses the cut-off date for the public school system or barely makes it and would be the youngest in the class by nearly a year (which makes a difference at that age).
By choosing Primrose, these children won’t have to miss anything or repeat a certain class. They can attend private kindergarten and be even more prepared to enter either public kindergarten or first grade.
What about COVID-19?
The over-sized Kindergarten classroom provide a modern, safe, clean, and open learning environment for students to socially distance properly. This space allows for flexible learning spaces, seating, and guided small group spaces designed to capitalize on meeting each child’s needs.
We have also implemented additional safety protocols like temperature checks, external drop offs and pickups, frequent disinfecting and sanitization of common spaces, to name a few.
Congratulations to the Gargan Family! You are the winners of the $75 gift card for turning in your completed paperwork!!
We finally donated all the toys that, our parents generously donated during the hot cocoa/toy drive weekend and throughout last week, to Ronald Macdonald House. We hope to bring a smile to the children during the holidays!
