Preparing for Kindergarten Remotely!

My Students

It looks like the "About my students" essay does not describe your students' remote learning circumstances. Please insert information about your students such as details about their background, your neighborhood, or your school, including details about how and where they are learning currently.

Consider writing this essay section in a generic way that can be applied to any of your projects no matter what materials are in the cart.

My Project

I need to help my students prepare for kindergarten remotely. These materials will make learning easier in the videos and live sessions.

We are beginning to learn how to add on within 10.

The It's A Snap Simple Addition Center and Size Color Teddy Counters will help reinforce their addition concepts.

I will be introducing word families, blending and cvc words. The Change A Sound Flip Books and Build A Word Magnet Board 3 Letter Words will help reinforce these important kindergarten concepts.

At this time of year, we introduce life-cycles. Unfortunately , all of my books are at school. The Life Cycles Theme Book Library will help our concept: Transformation.
