Preschool Photos

Titus has been in part-time Chinese preschool for two years now. Our main goal is for him to acquire Chinese language and enjoy friendships. Overall we've been so pleased with our local preschool and thankful that Titus is accepted and happy.

Titus' class is learning and doing all the things you would expect in a four year-old class -- art, games, P.E., music, nature, counting, playground, teamwork, snacks, naps, cartoons, stories, basic Chinese character recognition, life skills. This spring Titus is helping teach his classmates a few English words each week with a poster that he and I create at home. Every Friday afternoon families are invited to join the class for hiking on the mountain trails.

This fall we're tentatively planning to start Mike and Jon in half-day preschool as well. They're both ready and will benefit from the social and learning environment.

Below are a bunch of photos, including a backlog of old ones that I dug up on the class website. Keep your eyes peeled for our brown-haired boy!
