Exploring all four seasons in preschool

Through out this week, the children have been exploring the four seasons. For one of our activity boxes, we set out laminated trees and symbols to go on the trees that represent each of the four seasons…

Before playing with the four season items, the teacher brainstormed with the children about which season each symbol might represent..

The children then put on their thinking caps and sorted the symbols onto the trees. There wasn’t a lot of room at the table so this little girl decided it would be just as fun to try this out on the floor…

This is just one of many activities going on through out the classroom. The children are given plenty of time to choose which activities they want to try and then gravitate from one play experience to another. You can hear lots of talking and laughing as the play goes on…

This is a good reason to keep those floors clean – the entire classroom is part of the learning environment!

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'
