Book of the Day

A beautiful story which earned the 1963 

Caldcott Medal, awarded annually to the

artist creating the most distinguished

American picture book for children.  

Keats evokes the excitement and awe

of a little boy awakening to discover
his neighborhood in the city is
blanketed under thick, heavy snow. 

We promise "delight" in your

forecast when you read it to a child!

Book of the Day

This rhyming, fun tale treats listeners
to all 26 letters of the alphabet.  In
fact the whole gang prove to be a bit
difficult for the coconut tree. 

 Why? 
A game of follow-the-leader, of course!

What We Can Learn from PreK

http://www.npr.org/blogs/ed/2014/11/25/366561443/what-every-school-can-learn-from-preschools

Preschool provides children
essential opportunities to grow. 

We can see students learn

to listen, manage their emotions, 

and follow directions from adults

other than family members.

A child's success later in life can
hinge on important learning
that happens in preschool.

So why not enable an entire
school to nurture the ability
for all kids to develop grit,

and develop strong work habits?
