I would like for you to ask your child the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>How many chairs are in the dining room?<\/li><li>How many people live in your house?<\/li><li>How many real penguins live in your house?<\/li><li>How many windows do you have in your house?<\/li><li>How many real dinosaurs live in your house?<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If your child responds with the word \u201cnone\u201d remind them that the number for nothing is zero!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Work Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Turn off those screens and play with some toys, color, paint\u2026 anything you can think of!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Planning Time (5 minutes):&nbsp;<\/strong>Build your child\u2019s ability to organize their time by having them make a \u201cplan\u201d with you about what they would like to play with.&nbsp; Children do this everyday with us at school. It helps children learn to organize their thoughts. Adults make plans all the time to organize their thoughts (shopping lists are made before going to the grocery store, to do lists are made to help plan your day etc..).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Work Time (45-60 minutes):<\/strong>&nbsp;During work time kids play&nbsp;<strong>WITHOUT ELECTRONICS<\/strong>.&nbsp; Kids can use toys to pretend play, build, and create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Clean Up (about 15 minutes):<\/strong>&nbsp; Kids clean up the mess they have made while playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Recall<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Time (5 minutes):\u00a0<\/strong>Build your child\u2019s memory of events by having your child tell you what they did while they played (ask \u201ctell me how you did that\u201d or \u201cwhat did you do next?\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Story Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another one of our classroom books.  I hope you have seen your child&#8217;s face light up as they listened to these stories that they are familiar with.  This is how the joy of reading begins.  They are feeling like they are readers already!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Little Mouse, The Red-Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear\" width=\"625\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/apvgbUckC-k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Movement\/Outside<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure you get outside today if the weather cooperates.
