•  This week is the second week in our unit study about balls.

    Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. 

    *Please monitor your child when watching the stories-safety first!

    Here you will find the daily stories, questions,and activites. Please note that all links are in RED.

    Young children are focused on the present, helping to build a daily schedule with them helps the young child learn about time and learn about sequence. A schedule also helps them feel secure, because they know what to expect and what's going to happen.

    Here is a great link to help you get started with one:
