Look Outside
How are the seasons different?
Get ready to explore, read, and play! Children learn all the time, and your involvement is crucial. Here you will find the tools you need to support your little learner at home. Here we grow!
In the weeks ahead, children will make leaf prints, draw pictures of the weather, and explore the changing seasons as they play, sing, and read. You will be invited to join in as we share stories and describe what we have learned about seasons.
Hello, Families! Learn what we are talking about each week, and discover some simple activities you can do at home. Literacy is everyday practices, not just something that happens in school.
You can help! In the coming weeks, be on the look-out for volunteer requests, or contact your teacher to learn how you can participate.
Day by day, week after week, your little ones are growing and changing. Notice when they can drink from a cup, fasten their shoes, or sing a familiar song. Congratulate them with a delighted "Look at you go!"
Sunshine, breezes, rain, and snow—each season brings changes to the world around us. This month, little ones notice and describe these changes as they explore how to dress for and enjoy each season.
Your commitment is the key to your little learner's success. Ready to unlock a bright future? Do these daily activities and routines at home!
