Preschool Reads Over 1,000 Books!

We celebrated our preschool's amazing book reading accomplishment with a Pizza Party at the end of our Annual Read-a-thon!  Thanks to all of our magnificent parents and families for all of the books you read and logged.  Reading is truly one of the most significant things you can do for your child's learning!

On Wednesday, we got to make our own personal pizzas with lots of toppings to choose from.  We kneaded the dough and rolled it out, added sauce, cheese and any toppings we wanted.  Some children made just cheese while other packed on "the works"!  We cooked them and put them in the fridge for our party day on Thursday.


Pizza Party Day was a success thanks to all of the parent helpers!  We did all things "pizza".  We made a pizza paper craft, put together pizza puzzles, played pizza topping games where you had to roll the dice or spin the spinner to add toppings to your pizza.  We had a matching game for the AM kids, which turned into "Go Fish" for the PM kids.  Pappa's Pizza Topple game always brings lots of giggles and laughter as you try to stack on and balance as many toppings as you can before they all fall off.  In the end, we did a pizza parachute activity and danced to the Pizza Pie song with Ms. McGregor.
