She has a very strong grasp of the letters and their sounds and is able to work her way through sounding out some words. She is very excited to be able to look at a book and see more than just letters jumbled on the page.
Evaluation comment from a mom
The cost of a high quality pre-kindergarten program is $12,000 per year…putting quality pre-kindergarten out of reach for most middle class families with young children
In order to make our products more affordable to more teachers, we are now offering components of our kits for individual purchase. This way teachers can add products as funds become available.
After receiving positive feedback at the NAEYC Conference this past fall, we learned a few things:
Our concept was well received
Our product was aesthetically pleasing [...]
I’m currently learning the meaning of the phrase, “time flies!”
I spoke of the New Year in an earlier post as a time of new beginnings, new goals, new outlooks for the future…all of those things that add up to make New Year’s resolutions such a universal term.
For me and my family, 2010 really is about [...]

Most of us recognized yesterday as Valentine’s Day, but it was also the first day of the Chinese New Year. In celebration, this month’s book review focuses on Ruby’s Wish, an endearing story of the Chinese New Year that provides wonderful insights into Chinese culture and particular customs. It’s a [...]
“How many of you have scissors at home?” I always ask this on the first day of class, and I am always amazed at how few students raise their hands.
Scissors—and cutting—have become a lost activity in the home. Do parents not understand that cutting experiences enable the development of fine motor skills in the hands [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, having pre-kindergarten age children, I am able to assess technology not only from the perspective of a teacher, but also from the perspective of a mother. I can see first-hand what works and what doesn’t with my children; what captures their attention, what does not.
I am also able to assess what [...]

A new year has begun, and for many of us that means new beginnings and new dreams. Twelve fresh months ahead—what will we do with them?
In the decision and planning process, we get to utilize one of the greatest gifts we are given: our imagination! As this relates to children, pick [...]
In addition to being a teacher, this past week I experienced the Pre K Scholars program as a mother, and saw it through the eyes of my own child (or children in my case). Wow! What an awe-inspiring experience it was from the start.
My twins turn five on Monday and are enrolled in one of [...]
This holiday season, I gained a lesson in perspective.
My 11 year-old has an iTouch, which she graciously shares with her little sisters. Until recently, when one of my four year-olds would ask, “Where is my iTouch?” I would shudder—how indulgent it sounded! I mean, a four year-old with an iTouch…how ostentatious! I would die if [...]
Benedict Carey recently published an article in the New York Times that examines long-held beliefs and assumptions about brain development in children. “Studying Young Minds, and How to Teach Them” outlines the shifts some teachers and schools are making, including a move from teaching math as counting skills, to math as quantity recognition. The post [...]
Lost dog or found cat—now that I have seen. But while walking the other morning I actually saw a sign posted by a mother searching for her child’s missing stuffed animal! I was so amazed that I had to take a picture of it.
Although this seemed a little crazy, I must admit that I am [...]
