December 2017 – This month Pre-K, Level 1 and Level 2 classes focus on learning to identify colors and two dimensional shapes and using this information for sorting activities and to duplicate & recognize patterns. Levels 3 and 4 continue to work on these concepts at a higher level, with the added concepts of ordering and comparing (objects and numbers). We will talk about resources available in your home or classroom to support instruction, as well as great online worksheets, online games and apps. In addition, we have added many sorting and patterning worksheets to the LP Archive. Let us know how they work for you! Don’t forget, holiday decorations, inside and out, can provide accessible tools for labeling and describing shapes or discussing patterns. Happy holidays to you all!
