Reading is so very important! I hope you have been enjoying the new books that get sent home each month! My goal is to provide each family with at least 10 high quality books that you can read and treasure with your child! <3

Here are 3 stories that we have been reading/will be reading this month! The children LOVE these books, and get SO good at retelling the stories by acting them out with puppets + props!

March is Reading Month!

Wow! How is it March already?! The countdown to spring and sunshine is on!

Thank you to everyone for your participation in our virtual day, and for bearing with me while Zoom acted up on me! The kids love seeing each other this way, and I think it was a good bonding experience for them overall. Hopefully you were able to get some quality time in with your preschooler.

March is reading month, so I will be doing my best to fill our days with stories that the children will love, and will be able to retell with ease! We will also have some former prek students back in to our room, to show us what kindergarten reading is all about! I encourage you to read at home with your child every night before bedtime. They love listening to stories, and take away so much from it! Below are some tips and tricks to make reading at home successful! Reminder: it can be done in ANY language!
