I Am Thankful to Be A Preschool Teacher

I am so thankful to be your child's preschool teacher.  Here are my top ten reasons why I am thankful to be a preschool teacher:

  1. I am thankful you chose MCP for your child's first school experience.  It means a lot. 
  2. I am so thankful that we teach your child to learn in new ways.  Blocks, art, science and puzzles.  I love seeing the 'light bulb' go off and those Aha! moments.
  3. The struggle is hard but when your child puts on their coat, places the last piece in the puzzle or counts to ten and says, "I did it!", it's well worth it.  
  4. I am thankful I get to express my inner child every day. 
  5. Teaching preschool has made me more creative and resourceful.  I look at things differently and for this I am thankful.  Plastic caps, cardboard tubes, cereal boxes and much more have a creative and academic impact on our classroom.
  6. Fifteen kids in a classroom.  Teaching preschool has made me a patient person even outside the classroom.
  7. Teaching preschool allows me to see the wonder and excitement of simple things.  
  8. I am thankful I have been allowed to develop our own curriculum for MCP.  We are able to explore art, chemistry, artists, science, travel the world and much more.  I have learned a lot from teaching preschool like what cropolite is.  
  9. I love it that preschoolers are completely honest and super funny.
  10. I am thankful to share the day with your child. Every day is something new!
