Mountain Ranch Preschool: Claw-Claw the Kite

Claw-Claw the Kite

While learning about wind yesterday, the kids wrote a story about Claw-Claw the kite. This story is entirely theirs, I merely wrote it down for them!

Hi! My name is Claw-Claw. I'm a kite. One Sunday, my friend Leecy was at the park flying me. Suddenly, a big storm came and blew me away. A big wind named Blower was so scary. He was blowing me away from Leecy and I knew she would be so sad. Blower took me all the way to Mexico. When we got there, I hid behind a fall tree and Blower couldn't find me. Leecy asked her mom to drive her to Mexico to get me. Her mom tried to get me down from the tree, but it was too high. So she asked politely if she could borrow a ladder and she got me down! Then they took me home and locked me in the garage so Blower couldn't get me and they locked all the doors so Blower couldn't get any of the other kites. The End.

We have been working on asking politely when we want something another student has, so I was so glad they put that into the story! They have great imaginations!

About the School

We will be working on all the academic skills your child needs to be ready for kindergarten such as: alphabet, numbers, colors, shapes. We will also be focusing on some other skills that students need such as socialization, following directions and motor skills. We will be learning these through music, play, and classroom time. I strongly believe that children learn by doing, so most of our time will be spent in hands on activities. Each month we focus on a different theme to help us get excited about our learning and to learn a little bit about science and social studies along the way!
