A Peek Into Our Week
Motivation to Read
Motivation to read is a child’s eagerness and willingness to read. To encourage your child:
- Read both fiction and nonfiction books to your child.
- As you read, ask open-ended questions. For example, ask “What do you think is going to happen when we turn the page?” or “Why did the boy go outside?”
- Use everyday life experiences to build your child’s vocabulary.
- Encourage imaginative play and storytelling.

Music
Greetings from the music room! Your little one has been thinking about you all week long in music class. We love our mommies and our daddies and have prepared a little song for you. (Since we won’t be in school for Father’s Day, we’d like to include the dads in this celebration as well.) Right click to open the hyperlink on your teacher’s name to see the video:
