Brenna's Preschool Graduation

Brenna finished her year of preschool.  She had a lot of fun this year.  This is her and her teacher, Penny Pincock.  She was such a wonderful teacher!!  She was so loving and patient with all the kids.  One of my favorite things was that she incorporated Church teachings into her lessons with the kids.  I loved having Brenna come home and tell me Book of Mormon stories.  It was like having her go to primary 2 extra times a week.  Penny definitely showed how our Savior loves these little children.

During the year they worked on a different letter each week and did an activity with that letter.  Her teacher put it all together in a book for the kids.  Brenna was so proud of her book and couldn't wait to show us all the cool stuff she did.

The kids got to perform a nursery rhyme in front of everyone.  Brenna was so excited for her turn.  She did such a good job saying "Jack and Jill."  She loves getting up in front of people.  She has even volunteered to give a talk in primary when the person assigned didn't show up (she did a talk with no help from us since it was spur of the moment).

Here's a picture of the whole class.  They were so proud of everything they did.  I wish these kids were going to be in Brenna's kindergarten but they live in Morgan.

Brenna did her end of the year test with her teacher to see how much she had learned.  At the beginning of the year the only letter she could write was the letter "B."  Now she writes the whole alphabet, and can sign the alphabet too.  She can write a few of her numbers and can almost count to 20 now (sometimes she says 14....16...19...21 =) but if you can get her to concentrate she can do it all).

Brenna has learned so much this year!  Most of what I wanted her to learn was the social part.  She did fabulously!  I don't mean to brag.....wait, yes I do....but I have the smartest little girl!!!  She is such a fast learner.  For her birthday she got a Leapfrog Didj and she is already learning to do simple addition after only playing it a few times.  She is trying to spell words now and if she sounds them out she can most of it spelled.  I can't wait to see how much she learns at kindergarten next year.

So if anyone in Morgan needs a great preschool....call Penny Pincock....you will not be disappointed!!!
