Hello everyone!
Today we will be doing a sequencing activity! It will be to a favorite song The Itsy Bitsy Spider. Attached is a file that you can print. If you do not have a printer you could draw or talk about the pictures on your device you are using for these activities.
Hi everyone!
Today we will be working on patterns. Patterns are important because they help your children make predictions, understand what comes next, and how to make logical connections. There are several types of patterns AB (red,yellow,red yellow), ABB (red, yellow, yellow, red, yellow, yellow), AAB (red, red, yellow, red, red, yellow), ABC (red, yellow, blue, red, yellow, blue)
Attached below are examples of patterns. At home you could just make circles and color them in with crayons. If you have pattern bears that would be great and you could also use pencil to make simple shape patterns.

Offering your child choices throughout the day is a great way to work on their communication skills. When a child has choices they feel like they have control over a situation and also feel like they are in charge. Start small by offering your child two choices in different ways throughout the day.
