Literacy Month - First Week

Literacy Month is gaining speed! Exciting events have happened this week in Pre-K. On Monday, Zaylin's mom read  "Curious George in the Big City." In the story, George got lost. Pre-K Friends put their heads together to think what would they should do if they, chas veshalom, get lost. What would be the right choice? One friend said that they need to find a policeman and tell him about.  All friends absolutely loved the part of the story where George jumped out of the box to surprise his friend with theYellow Hat.


On Tuesday, we went to the Book Fair. Before going to the sale, we discussed what would be the way to choose the right book. First, we look at the cover of the book and think what this book could be about, is it something that we want to read about? Then we take time to look through the pictures to see if it matches our prediction. Everyone had a great experience choosing the book to buy. Thank you, Moms and Dads, for supporting our Book Fair Experience.


On Wednesday, we visited the Brooklyn Central Library. We joined the Mazel Elementary School friends for the Reading Program where a librarian told us how to use our library cards. She read some books to us that we had the great pleasure of listening and learning a song about ravioli.  Then we choose books to borrow, checked them out and went back to school.

On Thursday, Yonni's mom came to read  the book "Library Lion." This story is about a lion who starts visiting the local library but runs into trouble as he tries to both obey the rules and help his librarian friend. From this story we learned that it can be ok to break rules when you need to help your friend. We love reading and we love our parents even more! We can't wait to see more parents coming to our class for reading!!!
