Welcoming Fall in 5 Day Pre-K!
Hi Everyone,
On Monday, we started our Handwriting Without Tears Curriculum. We will not be going in alphabetical order because the curriculum is designed to teach the letters by stroke. First are the vertical and horizontal letters. L was our letter this week. The children were all very excited for Show & Tell. Our song this week was Lazy Lefty Lion.
The Reading Street curriculum is a hit too! We read Dig! by Andrea Zimmerman & David Clemesha. In this story, "Mr. Rally and his faithful dog, Lightning, have a busy day ahead of them, but they don't mind. What could be more fun than using a big yellow backhoe to build a pool at the school and a drain for the rain? Follow Mr. Rally through his day as he travels around town, counting from one to five in an irresistible refrain."
Our song to go along with our book was We're Working Together. Our vocabulary words were backhoe, dig, playground, jobs, bridge and pool. We talked about how people work together to build things.
