Jesse Bear PreK (BFIAR)

PreK is all kinds of fun.  Our plan?  To read our way through the classic children's books in the

Before Five in a Row book, expanding on themes and ideas. 

First up was, Jesse Bear, What Will You Wear?, and Claire was instantly mesmerized by it. 

For science, we started a study of bears.

She learned the words hibernation and den under our dining room table. 

 

She did a lapbook from Homeschool Creations, sorted and counted gummy bears, learned to draw a bear and did some bear math.

My girls love a good "book party" so they planned a teddy bear picnic, complete with bear decorations and bear pancakes!

BFAIR is perfect for Claire, who loves books, and needs repetition. It's perfect for me because it is low key and a I love more classic children's lit. 

By the end of the week, our girl had Jesse Bear memorized and wanted to read aloud over and over. 

It was high on cuteness factor, and needed to be recorded to preserve her sweet four year old self.
