What preschool is teaching my son

I'm always amazed at what my son learns at preschool....and even more so at how the TWO teachers he has are able to get 15 4yr olds to do it!!!!!!!!!!  like putting the caps back on markers, coloring within the lines (or as they say, get all the white out), kind words quiet voices (apparently only to be used at school)...but the best by far was when my son told his grandmother today "Grammy close your side doors".  huh?  what does that mean?  and he motioned for her to put her hands over her ears, so that he could tell his little sister to do something she was not supposed to do...Oh, and the front door?  i'm sure you can guess! 
How did i not think of that?  how is it that his 85yr old teacher can teach him how to open/close his ears/mouth by a cute little phrase...and to criss cross his applesauce for story time?  amazing.

Cute phrases to make them learn manners.  excellent.
How about the Word of the Day?  I do NOT understand this...It must be some cruel joke on the parents to be teaching the kids these words...It has happened on more than one occassion that I actually did NOT know the meaning to the word of the day....PRESCHOOL people!!! and mommy who is college educated didn't know the meaning.  Anyhoo, last weeks word was Preposterous.  Yes yes yes..i knew the meaning, but really, does a 4.5 year old need to know the meaning of that?  We had an electrician at the house fixing something (typical) and when my son  told me the word, the electrician said "jeez, i don't even know how to spell that".  And then Jackson went ahead and gave us the meaning.  Brilliant! 

So at school, my son is a well mannered thesaurus in the making!  At home, he is a bossy, ill tempered superhero in the making. :)  i like the home version better. :)
