If you are interested in being a Parent Reader, you can sign up on the monthly calendar by the 3's entrance into our classroom.  The children really enjoy this!

At-Home Activity You can do with Your Child:  Play board games with your child, either one-on-one or as a family.  Sit around the table or on the floor and bring out some snacks.  Enjoy some fun-filled quality time together.  Your child can learn many important skills from this experience such as: counting dots on a die/dice and understanding this number sense, counting spaces to move pieces around the board, taking turns and possibly some reading skills.
