Notes From....
Cheri Winchell
Director of Early Childhood Education Shirlee Green Preschool

Shirlee Green Preschool is in full swing for the 2011-2012 school year. We have many exciting fall activities occuring as well as preparations for the high holidays.
Friendships are blossoming as are our very youngest children in Chamudim (Mommy and Me) and M'tukim (our class for children who are 18 months old coming for the first time without a parent or caregiver). In Chamudim the parents have the opportunity to socialize with one another while interacting with their children during music, art, and other special activities. M'tukim offers children an opportunity to experience movement, music, art, and the celebration of Jewish holidays, including Shabbat. There are still spaces available in both of these fun-filled classes. If you are interested please contact the Preschool office at 314-569-0048. We would love for you to be a part of our amazing programs!
Shalom,
Cheri
Shirlee Green Preschool provides a play-based environment, rich in Jewish values and customs. We believe play is a child’s work. Organized, open-ended and child-directed play allows children to anticipate real life situations as they interact, communicate, make choices, problem solve, and grow. Our faculty is committed to creating a safe and loving atmosphere and to nurturing a child’s creativity and positive self-image. Our goal is for each child to develop an interest and joy in learning and a feeling of security, success and responsibility.
The Growing Tree

If you would like to commemorate a special occasion ~ recognize a special event, honor a teacher, congratulate your Chaverim graduate, welcome a new family member, etc. ~ consider purchasing a leaf on our Growing Tree! Learn more by downloading the Growing Tree Brochure.
For over 40 years, Congregation Shaare Emeth has had the privilege of being a part of Jewish and General education for the youngest of our community.
Shirlee Green Preschool is a September through May preschool dedicated to providing children with the best start in their Jewish education, as well as preparing them for learning in the varied situations they will find as they grow.
Our philosophy is based on Developmentally Appropriate Practice as defined by the National Association for Education of Young Children, as well as the constructivist practice outlined by Missouri’s Project Construct.
At our school, children learn what it means to be Jewish, the value of community, how to have pride in themselves, the fun of discovery and many more values that will become a part of the person they will grow to be. As they learn, they experience a warm, nurturing environment that only enhances their love of learning.
