Classroom Happenings
This week our class focus was on the tools people use every day to help them work, play, cook, and do their chores. Children also read about tools such as utensils to eat, a calculator to add, and a shovel to dig holes.
Here are some activities that you can do with your child to help reinforce the skills we will be practicing.
