March at AOFC is all about the Leprechan at least what he will do, will we catch him, what kind of trouble will he get into and plenty more as well as making the best most efficient Leprechan trap to catch him in the act! The Educators get just as excited as the kids do as they create the most fun mess for the tricky Leprechan to leave in the classrooms from green toilet water, glitter on tables, making a mess of toys and leaving behind gold coins for each child to find. Everyone was reporting to each other what the Leprechan did in their class and how did they not catch him, how did he get so fast and what does he look like?! The Leprechans got away this time but not without some trickery and so much fun! March Madness at AOFC!

Bike Day
Probably one of the most coveted days at AOFC for both new and old students is Bike Day, where bikes, trikes and scooters are brought to school to ride during each classrooms outside time. Lots of excited squeals and comments of "cool helmet", "awesome bike" are heard as well both on and off each bike or scooter. All levels of riders were having the best time riding the special bike route in front of the school showing off their skills to teachers and friends. A great time was had by all and we can't wait for the next one !! Bike day is the best at AOFC!

Preschool One classroom
This week the Preschool 1 classroom has been hard at work trying to master several skills that involve hand eye coordination as well as problem solving at their learning tables each day. Learning to use scissors is an area where many children struggle as it reqires dexterity to hold the paper to be cut and then the hand eye coordination to actually use the scissors correctly . One of the tables was scissor skill practice while the other one had play dough which helped them stregthen their hands as well as allowing them to use special scissors to cut the play dough. Finally, using bean bags to help with coordination was a fun way to learn in between each table rotation. We can't wait to see these newly aquired skills put to use both in the classroom and at home.
