​In December, many activities in the math, literacy and language arts domains had a holiday theme.  A few examples included: a science experiment that dissolved a gingerbread man cookie, creating a mini cranberry bog, taking measurements using a wrapping bow, making peppermint playdough, wrapping presents to enhance fine motor skills and learning the traditions of Hanukkah.  A holiday party and a visit from Santa Claus capped off a great month!

Santa made his annual visit to Little Scholars Preschool and enjoyed some time with the kids and the staff!  Also, LSP sponsored a Christmas tree at Slater Park's Winter Wonderland.  The kids did an outstanding job making ornaments to decorate it!

The students at Little Scholars Preschool had a special visit from Animal Experiences this week!  Students were very excited to learn about, explore and develop an appreciation for reptiles, amphibians, and other small animals without being afraid of them.  They learned that animals are not always kept as pets and that they are to be treated with care.  Most of all, the kids enjoyed getting hands on with them!
