BE ON TIME!!!





I have many students arriving to class late... EVERYDAY!
Although I understand that many things can happen and can make you arrive late some of the excuses the students give me everyday are hilarious and out of this world. But in the other hand it worries me because they are missing on important information and they are not valueing the time dedicated to the class. Many come in late lost, asking many questions that have already been answered. I do not mind answering again but there are other students that came in early and have started already the class and have their minds focused on the class.

If it helps...

Kinder and PK - Shapes

Hello!
In this website I found some stories about shapes that you can read at home to your children.

http://www.storyplace.org/preschool/other.asp

*ReAdInG*

I am always talking to my students about reading.
Reading gives you a chance to learn new vocabulary and my favorite...USE YOUR IMAGINATION.

There is a site I constantly use with my babies at home for reading. Every time I read an ebook from the website Pearson Foundation and Penguin Group  donates a book to different charities that work in communities around the world. Join the cause!!!
