Ready For School is a Holland/Zeeland based initiative that promotes children being Ready For School. I belong to this initiative and was asked to write an article about a special happening at FUN Preschool.
Sunshine on Fun Preschool
by Deb Dankovic
As part of the daily curriculum for the kindergarten readiness class at Fun Preschool, we have a weather check on the daily weather. Before he or she looks out the window to observe the weather, I always ask "who will be my Joe Kopecek,for a boy, or Hally Vogel,for a girl. One day when I asked, the real Joe Kopecek walked in the room much to my surprise and delight! I had no idea! It was a wonderful surprise for me and the children. Mr. Kopecek brought in a video to show the children how meteorologists broadcast the weather. Through the video, he was able to give the children a tour of the WZZM Channel 13 station. We were all on TV that evening! It was a delightful surprise put together by a wonderful parent.
