Pre-K Updates!
Parents,
We enjoyed our "Rhyme Time" unit about nursery rhymes! Our friends have been getting better and better at identifying rhyming words.
This week, we began our author study on Mo Willems! Over the next few weeks, we are spotlighting this great author and illustrator and his hilarious books. We are also working on identifying uppercase and lowercase letters and the sounds they make, identifying and creating patterns, telling what number comes before and after a number, number lines, and writing our names using upper and lowercase letters.
