Pre-K Supply List

Dear Pre-K Student,

Hello and welcome to Pre-K! I am so excited to meet you and your family in just a few more weeks. I hope you have been having a wonderful summer and I look forward to beginning a year full of activity and learning at Notre Dame School!

There are so many things to look forward to in Pre-K! We will learn together as we explore our alphabet and favorite stories, counting and numbers, shapes, patterns, and much more. We will learn to write our names and letters as well as how to be kind and helpful friends. We will take part in many exciting holiday and seasonal celebrations and performances.

In Pre-K there is plenty of time for play. We will enjoy the outdoor playground when the weather is clear. We will have fun learning about our natural environment by exploring seasonal changes around us. In our classroom centers, we will spend time building, working on puzzles, making shapes with play dough, and exploring our creativity with paint and other art materials. We will read, sing, pray, and play together. Every day is an adventure in Pre-K and we will be busy with so much to do!

I am looking forward to meeting you at the end of the summer! Thank you for joining our class; I am so excited to begin a wonderful year of learning and growing together!

Your Teacher,
Ms. McElroy
