Children speak with more than just words. They express themselves in drawing, playing, laughing, crying, and simply moving. Sometimes we can read these behaviors fairly easily.

Every Monday morning my parents come into class from 8:50-9:10am to read and play reading games with their children.

As a preschooler teacher who spends a fair amount of time with our youngest learners, you play an important role in helping children develop important social-emotional skills.
