This course will focus on Pre-K skills that will help every child (and parent) feel more confident about the first year of school. My approach will be to work through the alphabet, two meetings a week, until we hit Z, and then start over again! In addition to a letter for each session, we'll also explore numbers, shapes, and early literacy tools, all while building collaborative learning skills through games, songs, rhymes, and activities. I am a patient teacher, who, after almost 25 years in youth services librarianship, has an extensive toolbox for keeping kids engaged, redirecting when necessary, and offering consistent transition cues to make each session smooth and familiar. Although this is moving through the alphabet, each session can be a drop in class: personalized greeting activity, letter and number of the day, letter themed picture book, shapes game, exploring the letter in ASL, shared home activity, consistent goodbye song. Parents will have the option to print out a letter for decoration at home (for example, g would be colored with green, r could be hole punched and laced with ribbon). The Letter A, July 8: Exploring A, the number 1, picture book: Alice Ate A, The Letter B, July 12: Exploring B, the number 2, picture book: Beach Day The Letter C, July 15: Exploring C, the number 3, picture book: Carl (wordless) The Letter D, July 19: Exploring D, the number 4, picture book: If Dinosaurs Came Back We will continue through the alphabet with sessions on Monday and Friday mornings.
Metas de aprendizaje
Students will gain early literacy skills, feel more comfortable with the alphabet letters and accompanying sounds, learn to finger spell the alphabet, and count up to 25. There are so many fun ways to approach learning at this age.
Otros detalles
Necesidades de aprendizaje
I offer a weekly sensory friendly story time, and I'm patient, flexible, and unfailingly kind. I will work with any parent to be sure all needs are met.
Lista de útiles escolares
I will offer a pdf of printable letters to decorate and ultimately put in a binder. This is an optional project, and parents can absolutely draw their own letters.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Maestría desde University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
I have an M.S. in Library and Information Science. I have been a youth services librarian for much of the past 23 years. When I wasn't an active librarian, I was teaching children's literature, young adult literature, and story telling to future librarians. When my own son was young, I worked for four years at his Montessori school (tuition costs were no joke), and I have integrated some of their base methodology as well.
I have access to an incredible collection of picture books, many of which I've selected and purchased from my book budget, at my library. I lead three weekly story times, and they are a celebration of community, the library, and whatever theme I've chosen for the week. One in particular is specifically a Pre-K themed story time, with the same alphabet letter per session approach.
I review 12 books a month for a professional library journal, I present at conferences, and I offer parenting workshops at my library on reading with their children. I miss teaching a great deal, and I know this will help fill that gap and also let me do what I love most: sharing the wonder and power of books, fun, and games as instructional tools.
