Spring Arrives today

Parents:

Spring is here, finally. Today is the first day of spring and hopefully all the snow is behind us. We talked about spring and signs of spring to look for. A great activity to do with your child is to go outside and walk around your yard or a park and look for the signs that spring is here. Make sure to ask your children questions about what they see and have them answer in a complete sentence. It is important to help your child use a complete sentence when talking with you. We are working on this in class.

 Vocabulary is very important during this stage of your child’s life. You can really help your child grow simply by talking to them. Don’t take for granted that they know what something is called, ask them. A trip to the store is a great place to start teaching new words to your child. You can help them build their vocabulary every time you talk with them. We all need to remember to put our phone’s down and talk with our children.

Thanks for sending in the reading logs. Reading each night helps build vocabulary.
