During our circle time, we read a book about Israel's birthday. I held up the book and Brett crawled right up and pointed to the cover and said "B"! I said, "Yes!" The first letter of birthday is B, just like Brett. Ben then exclaimed "I start with a B, too". Lizzie added, "Like a bumblebee!"
We teach letters and phonemic awareness in a natural way. This is a perfect example of how we follow children's interests. It is so exciting to see the children begin to recognize letters, sounds and make connections between their own world and the texts that we read!!
