Hi! My name is Ms. Mariniello and I am so excited to be your teacher this year!! Preschool will be filled with so many wonderful learning activities. We can’t wait to get to know each one of you, because in our classroom, we truly will become a family.
Along with my assistants Ms. Spinosa and Ms. Crescenzo, we strive to create a positive learning environment for our students.’ I know this year is starting out differently but we know we will make it work and have a blast!

Simple At-Home Math Activities:
There are a variety of ways to instill the love of math in children and making it meaningful in their daily lives. You can spend some quality time with your child in the comfort of your home and do the following:
- Play simple math board games with your child, using counters and dice. This reinforces their counting skills and number recognition. You can also use objects such as buttons or beads to count, sort and put into groups of 2, 3 or 4.
- Have your child help you sort items/material into corresponding bins when you clean up at home. This reinforces their sorting skills.
- Provide dotters for your child and encourage them to create and extend simple patterns on a piece of paper. Have Lego blocks available and ask how you can create patterns using Lego blocks.
- Show your child objects around the house that portray certain shapes. For example, a box is a cube. To extend their understanding and support them in making connections; ask what sizes boxes can be.
Some literacy skills that you can go over the parts of the book: front cover, back cover, the author writes the words and the illustrator draws the pictures. Ask your child questions after reading a story for retelling .They could draw a picture about the story.Have your child practice tracking print while they pretend to read. Have them practice holding the book correctly and turning the pages one at a time. Please continue to review the letters, the sounds they make, and writing their name.
