Pre-K Wednesday: {Books We Love}

At our preschool, circle time is one of the kids' favorite activities, and for many of the children, reading is their favorite part of the day! So I've compiled a list of a few of the books we love to read most:

ONE | MADELINE


Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans

Madeline is such a classic, and it's my personal favorite. I even dressed up as Madeline for Halloween! The kids just love to hear all about Madeline and her adventures.

TWO | OWL BABIES 

Owl Babies

Owl Babies is a sweet read for children aged 2 1/2 to 5 years old. The kids love helping me read this one aloud.

THREE | THE EARTH AND I

The Earth and I by Frank Asch

This book is a favorite of a few of our students, who bring it to me at all times of the day to hear it read over and over, helping me make animal noises (which we improvise) and for them, it is great fun.

FOUR | KNUFFLE BUNNY

  Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale by Mo Willems

Knuffle Bunny is a very sweet and funny tale of a young girl who loses her stuffed bunny - and all that ensues. We love reading in the main character, Trixie's voice as they discover that Knuffle Bunny is missing!

Work in Progress

This blog, at the moment, is a work in progress. I hope to figure out the ropes of this thing, so please be forgiving!
My life, too, is a work in progress. I live in this wonderful new town by the ocean, I'm transferring to a UC this fall, and I am so lucky to have found a job that I love here already. I'm currently a pre-school teaching assistant, and as I get more classes under my belt, I can become a teacher! It's not necessarily what I want to do permanently, but for now, I am loving it.

I even get to teach/read to them in Italian! Considering I'm majoring in Italian Studies, this is really a perk. I even learn new words when reading books like this one. So far, the kids have really enjoyed listening to me say the numbers. It's just so great that I get to incorporate my passion into my job. 

What are you all passionate about?

Until next time,
