Today, after we sang the days of the week, months of the year and continents songs, I took the “Around the World from A to Z” book out, since that’s where we can see the continents map. I love how the Philippines is represented by the Banaue Rice Terraces. Joule can recognize the continents from her time in the classroom, and we got as far as the letter J today.
Since this book has sandpaper cursive letters, I decided to show her the tactile letters we have at home, along with an object that starts with that sound. I’ll limit it to three objects next time, since she also said that she wanted to stop after the fourth.
I still have a lot of work to do until I can get my Montessori certification- and since I’m not going to be doing my practice teaching year in a school this fall, unless covid magically disappears, I’ll have to do all my practice time here at home.
