Preschool Update

It's been quite awhile since I've posted an update to Soren's preschool progress. Unlike big sister, Soren isn't eager to take time from her busy schedule of making a mess, watching tv, and playing dolls to learn her alphabet and numbers.




I try every two weeks to make her a new book which features a letter and number along with some sort of coloring and cutting activity. This week's selections are letter A and number 6. Evie brings home great tools from kindergarten that I use with Soren, specifically songs and chants. For example, Evie sings a song to the tune of "Are You Sleeping?" that goes like this: A has two sounds, A has two sounds, a and a, a and a. A for alligator, a for acorn, a and a, a and a. So, the song works for all the vowels, which is great.

Here she is practicing writing her A.




Here she is cutting out her apple (which she cut in half, said half was for daddy, but eventually let me put the pieces back together when we glued it into her book).



The dance tutu is obviously the uniform to which our little preschool ascribes, and a princess writing desk is absolutely necessary.
