2011 Curriculum ~ Preschool

Monkey is 3 years old and is just starting to do some “school” at the table with his sisters. Until now he has pretty much learned everything he knows from his sisters, Leap Frog movies, Rock ‘N Learn movies, Dora, Diego and through books we have read to him. He learns best through song and repetition. He can count to 14 and recognizes many of his numbers by sight. He can identify most letters and even knows many of their sounds. He knows some shapes and colors. Having said that my goal for him this year is to know all his letter names and sounds, count to 20 and recognize each number, learn 1-to-1 correspondence, learn the rest of his shapes and colors and to explore God’s creatures.
