Parent Testimonials
"The teachers at Giant Steps show us daily how much they care about the
students. They are enthusiastic about what they do from the beginning of the
day until the end. This year, Ms. Soler has taught Lucy so much and helped
her to really love to learn. All of the teachers have made it a point to
really know her. Lucy will miss them all so much next year." Young Family:
Transitional Kinder Parent

four years that our children have attended. The curriculum is outstanding
and the social development that has taken place has exceeded our
expectations. Giant Steps is nurturing and educational. It has been the
perfect foundation for our children's educational growth. Giant Steps is the
perfect combination of family, comfort, discipline, educationa, and fun!"

Bumblebee Preschool Classroom- Mrs. Newgard/ Ms. Castillo
This week we focused on the letter L, and our letter pal, Larry Lion. We created friendly and grouchy ladybugs to go with the story "The Grouchy Ladybug" by Eric Carle. We stamped legos on a large L. We sorted and graphed ladybugs, based on the number of spots on their backs. We also made handprint lambs in paint. We also tied our letter study to our math unit on opposites, sorting pictures of items that are little and large.
Last Friday, to end our study of winter, we celebrated White Day. We ice-skated in the classroom, using wax paper under our shoes! Ms. Castillo made cute and yummy snowman faces for snack, and we really enjoyed our paper "snowbal" fight! We threw snowballs at each other, and Mrs. Newgard and Ms. Castillo! We topped it off with Show-n-Tell, featuring white items brought from home. Great week Bumblebees!
