It is most likely our last preschool year, as our youngest will start kindergarten next school year and we currently have no babies in the house. Even though our children don't go off to school, we still 'mourn' the loss of the preschool years, but we anticipate with joy a new chapter in our family's life.
Last week, our youngest finished his last year of preschool learning. In this time, our children learn letters and sounds, from A to Z, numbers and counting, and simple mathematical concepts. We also like to introduce our preschoolers to basic concepts in science, history, and the arts. These are generally not formal lessons, but from time to time, our younger children have had unit lessons based on on books or historical time periods. When the material is applicable, our preschoolers have participated in the group lessons alongside of our older children. The younger children often absorb quite a lot of information during these times. We also try to incorporate fun activities and art projects into the preschool days.
With the winding down of our final preschool year, I thought it might be nice to record our main resources for teaching preschool. We find
A few of our favorite preschool resources are:
Get Ready for the Code, Explode the Code Primer, Book A, by Nancy Hall
