Developing Literacy Skills

We play.

We play a lot.

If your child talks about their day it probably is about play.

 

My goal is for the children to learn as they play.

I have introduced felt stories and story boxes in the last few weeks.  The students have often seen these before but they don't generally get to play with the parts themselves.

 

 

These kids are playing with two felt stories - Big Green Monster & Mr. Turkey.
They were working through the stories, taking turns and working collaboratively.

These kids are playing with a story box - Brown Bear, Brown Bear.
The book is in their laps and they are working together to get the character pieces up in order.

If you ask your child about these stories you will probably be surprised with their understanding.
