November - December

This page contains information on the units we are working on. As parents we like to know what our child has learned each day however at times that can be difficult to figure out from asking our child. This page is designed to help parents stimulate conversation with their children about their child's day in class.

This page contains information about the stories we read, songs we sing and fingerplays the children learn. Ask your three or four year old specific questions about their day such as: What stories did you read today? Which songs did you sing? Did you paint today? Tell me about your picture?

Please share some of the stories listed below with your child as they will also be hearing them in class. At this age children love to hear their favorite stories over and over again. Ask your child to teach you the fingerplays and songs of each unit.
