Themes, books & instruments
Updated: Sep 18

For Aug & Sept we'll be doing games, sand, water, beach/sea.
As we finish up peekaboo, head shoulders, & more human body games we'll also transition to music from islands around the world in Sept. This fall will focus on our neighborhoods including animals, weather, places to go & homes. We'll also do dress up & make believe related to fall festivities. Remember when enrolled you can pick one physical book & instrument per term PLUS you'll have access to digital materials anywhere with the app & handouts most weeks in class.
For all manipulatives (you can replace any take home instrument with a scarf or non breakable mirror instead)
