Because I have a reading minor, I have very strong feelings about teaching children to love and appreciate literature. If we can get our children to love books at a very young age, I believe that they will have an easier time learning to read.
I plan on using a literature based curriculum in my preschool. We will have a book each week that we focus on and we will center our math, social skills, motor skills, language arts, etc on the book of the week. My goal is that each child will come away not only more than ready to enter Kindergarten, but with a love and a desire to learn to read!
The curriculum I will be using is The Itty-Bitty Bookworm. I will also be using my own experience to supplement and help my students as it is needed.
