Eliana is in 4 year old preschool this year, going to school 4 mornings a week in the Teddy Bear Class. Once again, she is in class with her best friend Adele whom we car pool with. Eliana has been pretty excited to go back to school. For the most part, she gets ready in the morning without complaint and will hurry to get ready if she knows she might be late for school (which is a vast improvement from last year). One Friday she even asked me why she didn't have school that morning. I explained that she only goes to school 4 days a week so she has Friday off. She replied, "I wish I went to school every day!"
Her teachers this year are Mrs.Theado and Mrs. Strummer. Eliana often comes home from school excited to tell me about what she has learned or show me the papers in her backpack. Each week her class focuses on a different letter of the alphabet. This week was "D" week and we were in charge of snack. We brought carrots and hummus for "Dunking," crackers and cheese that were in the shape of Diamonds, and Donuts, of course. Recently her classroom has had a pretend pumpkin patch with different jobs for the kids to do like be the farmer or the store owner or someone shopping. Eliana has especially loved this and comes home telling me all about what her job was in the pumpkin patch.
Facts about Eliana:
