Ellie finished another year of preschool in June!
It was a big year - a new teacher, 2 days of drop off, more learning.
It amazing to think how much she learned in one year - all her letters and their sounds, counting to 20 (most of the time :), and counting to 12 in Spanish.
She had no problem with drop off and loved her friends. Sadly, this was the year she started to only play with "the girls"!! The boys are off playing fire and rescue and the girls are playing house.
I can't believe the gender separation has happened already.
Ellie still has boy friends that she plays great with at home but at school - those days are over.
What a difference!! In September she was a little 3 year old - in June a big 4 and a half year old!
Ellie soaked up the attention during 'graduation'. Her teacher, Teacher Paula, was wonderful. She engaged the kids and used so much creativity. We have been so lucky to start Ellie's school years off with such awesome teachers!
Even MacGruder got to enjoy the last day of school.
In the fall, Ellie will move on to 'Pre-K' with Teacher Cam and Jude will start the toddler program with Teacher Betsy. Since it's a co-op that will mean 2 days a week where I stay in the classroom, one with Ellie and one with Jude. It will be a busy year!
