Tuesday was Bret Tarver Isaac Preschool's annual please and thank you parade. Students get the chance to practice their manners at each classroom asking politely for a treat, and thanking the staff member who gave it to them. The student services team created a sensory experience for the students, with lights, a crawl through tunnel, stairs, balance beams and a texture wall. The students had an absolute blast!!

One last exciting first from last week!! We mentioned in our last post that the preschool campus was serving many purposes, and one of those purposes is a shared learning space for district professional developments. Our district leaders and ISD staff engaged in the first professional development session in this new space about Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB). Dr. Gregory C. Hutchings facilitated this session with our Isaac leaders about the importance of DEIB as together, we can honor the diversity of our learning community. ¡¡Una última novedad emocionante de la semana pasada!! Mencionamos en nuestra última publicación que el campus preescolar cumplía muchos propósitos, y uno de esos propósitos es un espacio de aprendizaje compartido para el desarrollo profesional del distrito. Nuestros líderes distritales y personal de ISD participaron en la primera sesión de desarrollo profesional en este nuevo espacio sobre Diversidad, Equidad, Inclusión y Pertenencia (DEIP). El Dr. Gregory C. Hutchings facilitó esta sesión con nuestros líderes de Isaac sobre la importancia de DEIP ya que juntos podemos honrar la diversidad de nuestra comunidad de aprendizaje.

Last week was a busy week at Bret Tarver Isaac Preschool. Welcoming all students and staff back from fall break, as well as lots of new and exciting things happening! We can't wait to fill you in!! Construction has been finished on both playgrounds (for now) and the temperature has dropped enough that the students are now allowed to utilize the playgrounds!! They couldn't be more excited!! We'd be surprised if you haven't already heard all about it, but ask your student to tell you about their favorite thing to do on the playground. We love being able to make memories out in the fresh air, while improving gross motor and social skills all at the same time!! La semana pasada fue una semana muy ocupada en el preescolar Bret Tarver Isaac. ¡Damos la bienvenida a todos los estudiantes y al personal después de las vacaciones de otoño, así como a muchas cosas nuevas y emocionantes que están sucediendo! ¡¡Estamos ansiosos por informarte!! ¡¡Se terminó la construcción en ambos patios de recreo (por ahora) y la temperatura ha bajado lo suficiente como para que los estudiantes ahora puedan utilizar los patios de recreo!! ¡¡No podrían estar más emocionados!! Nos sorprendería que aún no haya oído todo sobre esto, pero pídale a su hijo que le cuente cuál es su actividad favorita para hacer en el patio de recreo. ¡Nos encanta poder crear recuerdos al aire libre y al mismo tiempo mejorar la motricidad gruesa y las habilidades sociales!
