Jefferson School Virtual Field Day!
Today is our Jefferson Virtual Field Day! Mrs. Jacobsen and the Roxbury Physical Education teachers have planned a fabulous day of events. I hope you have signed up for events that you and your families can enjoy together. Please remember to submit your cards to Mrs. Jacobsen. Have fun and send me your photos.
Today is to focus on your field day events. I have a few additional activities planned for today, if you would like to continue with our class routine of story, calendar and music activities.
These activities promote a variety of developmental skills such as hand and eye coordination, concentration, writing skills, language skills, pre readiness cognitive skills, creativity and imagination as well as self esteem - a sense of pride and achievement in your preschooler.
The daily suggested activities for your preschooler are listed below. These are all suggestions for you to have in one location; if you find, that you need additional resources for your child. Our key word is Flexible and that is very important when working with young children. If you are in need of other resources, please just contact me.
I will continue to send a morning email each school day with links to this page, Ms. Cosgrove's morning message, and the attendance form.
Please continue to email me your pictures. I love seeing your faces and all the fun you are having while we are apart!

Letter Review Weekly Activities
We have completed our weekly letters. The remaining weeks of the year will focus on reviewing and reinforcing letter recognition as well as initial sounds. The suggested activities are designed to be practiced throughout the week.
Letter Activities and Alphabet Songs
Letter Cups
Grab a set of plastic/paper cups and letter stickers. You may write the letters on the cups with a marker, too. The pictures are examples of various letter activities you may explore with your preschooler. Too many letters at once, work on a few at a time until you feel as if your child has mastered those letters and beginning sound. Select letters of your child's name. If your child has mastered their first name, start working on last name. Extend this activity with numbers. The possibilities are many....
Rainbow Name
Have your child write their name in pencil. You may need to assist your child. Have your child trace each letter using 1 color of the rainbow for each letter. Repeat with a 2nd, 3rd, etc colors.
Sensory Writing/Play dough/Object Letters
Write your name as well as other letters and numbers in shaving cream, rice, sand, or flour. Any substance will work to give your child that sensory input when writing letters.
Use play dough to form letters. You may write a letter on a piece of paper and have your child roll out play dough to cover the letter. Cover the letter with small objects such as buttons, beads, cereal, or macaroni.
Music/Movement
