The ABCs of Kindergarten & Preschool for Parents & Teachers … and this week’s Kids Co-Op linky!
Ever had some questions that you’d really like to ask an experienced young education teacher? Well, most of those questions are probably already answered on this week’s featured blog, Kindergarten & Preschool for Parents and Teachers. And, if they haven’t been answered there already, you can always JUST ASK the very sweet and approachable, Susan Case …
Susan is a “retired” Special Ed and Kindergarten teacher with a M.S. in Family and Child Development. Currently, Susan is helping promote a summer reading program through PBS and MeMeTales. Over 20 free ebooks are available to own and more each week to borrow with activities. Each time a child joins, a free meal is donated to a hungry child. (I signed up my kids this week! It’s super easy and definitely worth it!)
Susan is also the author of Kindergarten: Tattle-Tales, Tools, Tactics, Triumphs and Tasty Treats for Teachers and Parents. Make sure to keep checking Katie (from Mommy with a Selective Memory … her ABCs will be featured NEXT week) and Susan’s blogs for the soon-to-be-released book: The Happy Mommy Handbook: The Ultimate How-to Guide on Keeping Your Toddlers and Preschoolers Busy, Out of Trouble and Motivated to Learn. So, here’s …
