Many of them have things wrong with them that wouldn't allow them to survive in their normal wild atmosphere. The Hawk was missing his wing, and the skunk was missing some of his toes. We were able to see animals such as Bearded Dragons, a Hedghog, Skunk, Ferrett, Tortoise, Mice, and a Tarantula. We were able to pet the Tortoise, and play with the mice. It was a really fun day!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#009900;">A.M.

I will have a morning and afternoon class three days a week. The cost is $70 per month. I am licenced, certified, and insured. I offer a a learning environment that incorporates developmentally appropriate practices... including *Learning centers (art, sensory, dramatic play, library, science, etc.) This will be a fun learning experience filled with field trips, active play/social interaction, number/letter recognition, reading and songs, and many other activities centered around getting your child ready for kindergarten. If you or anyone you know is interested, please feel free to leave me a comment on the blog. If you do not have an account to sign in with, please leave me a comment using the anonymous feature, and just tell me who you are at the end of your comment! This will be my second year of teaching preschool in Santaquin, and I am looking forward to all that it will bring.Kirstinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290184863780914noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269156373713286170.post-76363453684328921852009-03-10T11:12:00.000-07:002009-03-10T11:27:14.490-07:00Valentines Day Party<div align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><span style="color:#cc33cc;">We had a blast on Valentines Day!

Everyone brought lots of yummy things to eat and share with everyone. We 'tried' (operative word) working on our manners and ate and ate and ate until we were stuffed. We shared what we were all thankful for, and read a book about the first Thanksgiving.<br /><br /><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;">BEFORE:</span></strong></div><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274874160334480578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_de7MaIBzvwA/STQeGfGfpMI/AAAAAAAAAwc/ibBzm_re2VQ/s400/November+25,+2008+100.JPG" border="0" /><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;">AFTER:<br /></span></strong><div align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274877566141282690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_de7MaIBzvwA/STQhMuuHOYI/AAAAAAAAAx0/3wfsfU_-uXg/s400/November+25,+2008+093.JPG" border="0" /><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:180%;"><strong>A.M.

Of course it happened to fall on the absolute coldest day of the month, but that didn't stop the kids from having the time of their lives. I have never seen groups of children so excited to get on a wagon that is going to be pulled by a big green tractor, while having the bitter cold wind blowing in their faces. They were on a mission to find their perfect pumpkin, and that is what happened. After the ride, and running around the fields, and finding their pumpkin, we headed back to the farm for some warmth, and a sprinkled donut of course! Sorry I didn't get more pictures of the kids running around and posing in the pumpkin patch... but it was just plain freezing... So I did what I could do!<br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:180%;">A.M.

Linda Orr was so kind as to take us around the store, show us everything, and answer any of our questions. We learned that <span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;"><span style="color:#006600;"><strong>broccoli</strong></span> </span>is the most healthy thing a person can eat. We also learned that it is extremely important to eat <span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff6600;"><strong><em>fresh fruits</em></strong></span> and <span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"><strong>vegetables</strong></span> everyday. We got to go see where they cut the <span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:130%;color:#009900;"><strong>meat</strong></span>, which is very smelly. We saw where they unload the <span style="font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;color:#ff6600;"><strong>trucks</strong></span> at night, and where the<strong><span style="color:#990000;"> </span><span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"><em>seafood</em></span></strong> is put. We learned that catching <span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"><strong>crab</strong></span> is a very dangerous job. In the end, we got to go to the<span style="font-family:lucida grande;"> <span style="font-size:130%;color:#cc6600;"><strong>bakery</strong></span></span>, see the ovens, and get a <strong><em><span style="font-size:130%;color:#009900;">cookie</span></em></strong>.

Also, when we return to school next Tuesday (10/21), we will be taking our field trip to the South Ridge Farms Pumpkin Patch. ANY parent is more than welcome to come along on this field trip. I do still need some parents to come along as drivers and chaperones, but anyone extra who would like to attend is more than welcome. If you would like to come on Tuesday but have small children of your own that you would need to bring, all I ask is that you pay for your extra child. I will cover the cost of all preschool children to go on the hayride. If you would like your child picking out a pumpkin, you will need to pay for that. I was told the most average price was $5. If you are interested in coming or helping on Tuesday the 21st please call me at 754-1380. Class will meet at normal time. The A.M. class will leave for the pumpkin patch at 9:45 and the P.M. class will leave at 1:45. <br /><br />Thanks so much!! <br /><br />~Kirstin AndersonKirstinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290184863780914noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269156373713286170.post-8508240072806186502008-10-08T10:50:00.003-07:002008-10-08T16:07:21.606-07:00ATTN PARENTS:<span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>Parents: We are having a little bit of a problem with students being dropped off excessively early, and then being picked up excessively late. I understand that all of your time is valuable as mine is too. I have a baby that I have to drop off and pick up from a babysitter during preschool. I cannot have kids here early, as I have to leave to drop off my daughter, and I also need children picked up on time as I need to go pick up my daughter. If I am waiting here with preschool kids that didn't get picked up, I am paying my babysitter extra for the extra time she is tending my daughter. Please try to not drop off your own children any more than 5 minutes before school starts. I also need parents to pick up preschool children no later than 10 minutes after school let's out (unless previous arrangements have been made.) I will have to start charging an extra $10 that needs to be paid immediately if picking up your child 15 or more minutes after school lets out. If it goes into the next hour $25 will be charged. This is to pay for my extra childcare costs and my time. In return, I promise to always be to the school on time, with the door open for the preschoolers to come on in. I will provide a two hour block of fun and educational learning, and we will be sure to be on time outside for waiting parents! Thanks for letting me bring this to attention. I appreciate everyone's cooperation!</strong></span>Kirstinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290184863780914noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269156373713286170.post-28349065314317605092008-10-08T10:45:00.000-07:002008-10-08T10:50:19.774-07:00Field Trip for October 9, 2008...Just a reminder, we will be going on a field trip to Smith's Food and Drug in Payson Tomorrow, 10/9/08. We will be learning about nutrition, and getting a tour of each department. Any parents are welcome to come. Please let me know if you would like to help! Notes are coming home with your students today with details! Parents can bring their other children on this field trip if needed. We are also going on a field trip on October 21st to South Ridge Farms to the Pumpkin Patch. I will also need parent volunteers to chaperone and drive for that field trip. That is a field trip that I pay for and had to pre-notify the Farms of, so I can only have 4 parent's per morning, and 4 for afternoon come along. We also cannot have parents bringing their other children on that field trip! Please let me know if you would like to help with that one. Thanks.<br /><br />~Kirstin AndersonKirstinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290184863780914noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269156373713286170.post-37735672200847037732008-10-02T10:49:00.000-07:002008-10-02T11:13:29.552-07:00Field Trip to the Fire Station - P.M.
