As our year proceeds on, there are a tons of important holidays coming up and what is a better way to teach and learn about them than to read about them! Please help me build my classroom library for my Pre-K Learners! Reading is such an important concept in any grade but especially in Pre-K. Reading not only helps students learn about important events and concepts, but it also provides an opportunity for these children to begin to build their vocabulary beyond story time. My kiddos love story time and I personally love to read to them! Thank you in advance!
