Our Senior Pre-school Teachers
Volume 24, Issue 3
By Mackenzie White, Anna Bauer, and Cornelia Ehlebracht
M ay 2012
Throughout all of the Spire Criers this year, nothing has been focused on pre-school. So we interviewed the pre-school teachers.
Inside this issue:
When we interviewed Mrs. Crum she told us an interesting fact. She told us that the circus was canceled so last year’s class was the last class to do it. Mrs. Crum is teaching her class art, sounding out words, making good choices, and enjoying school with play and fun. We asked her what her favorite thing to teach them was and she answered to be independent. We also asked her what her best memory was and she said there were too many good memories to choose from. Another thing is that her favorite event was the circus until it got canceled. Her favorite art project is really just watching Mr. Noble teach art and her favorite field trip is to Merrie Christmas Park. Then when we interviewed Mrs. Kniseley and she told us fun facts. She told us that she had no bad memories and that pajama day was her favorite thing to do. She also likes going on the field trip to the pet shop. She also loves the fact that she gets to relive the life of a five year old. Mrs. Kniseley is teaching her class about making books in Spanish about beautiful butterflies, and painting with vibrant water colors. Her favorite thing to teach to them is science and nature related things. Mrs. Noble was the last teacher that we interviewed. Mrs. Noble is teaching her class early literacy, how to read, science, how to sound out words, which is most or less, art, and to get along with one another. Her worst memory is being splattered in paint by a paint jug with a squirter on it. Her favorite activity is art. Her best memory from teaching pre-school is all of the hugs she receives. The circus used to be her favorite event for the pre-schoolers, but now it is pajama day. Out of all of the art projects, her favorite is the one she has just finished. When she thinks of her favorite field trip with them, she thinks of Merrie Christmas Park. We are so lucky to have had such great pre-school teachers, who make the beginning of our years here at St. Thomas full of learning and creativity.
The Spire Crier staff wishes you a great summer!
