My Project

Creative Curriculum is used in my Pre-K classroom.

I have been working with the same library books since 2018 and would love to update the library with additional books centered around multiple studies that my students are learning though out the school year.

This book request would be the beginning.

After lunch young students enjoy selecting a book, going to their spot and as they turn each page they make up a story while looking at the pictures. During the year they have been taught how to handle a book correctly, the importance reading and the joy of sitting by yourself in a quiet area.
