preschool graduation

Today was preschool's graduation/achievement day! The kids sang their favorite songs (I had them choose beforehand) and did so well! I am so proud of the great job all my students have done this past year. They are such a wonderful and smart group of children. It has been a pleasure to be their teacher!!!

These were their unofficial preschool portraits that I took of them, and gave them a copy of it with their graduation certificates.  I set up a little stage downstairs and put up a curtain backdrop and hung their portraits  on it.  I made all their graduation caps - those wearing black caps are pre-kindergarten, and those wearing white caps have one more year left of preschool.  Five of my preschoolers are beginning readers, and can read simple sentences and blend phonetic words really well.
