Suggested Home Activities The Preschool Press August 21-25 Curriculum This week we will continue to work on learning the routines and expectations of our classroom and the school during circle time, centers, and outside on the playground. In ELA, we will read a variety of “Pete the Cat” stories, while introducing parts of a book. We will also work on listening for sounds in a word as well as learning about letters. In math, we will work on rote counting with 1:1 correspondence to 5. We will also introduce simple concepts during calendar math working on days of the week, months, listening skills, same/different, and color recognition and sorting.
