Back to School Book of the Day: Maisy Goes to Preschool

Maisy Goes to Preschool: "Preschool for Maisy means a day filled with friends and things to do, from the time she hangs her coat on a special peg to the time she says good-bye. There’s painting and snack time, stories and nap time (and a bathroom break in between). Soon everyone’s ready to haul out the instruments and make some noise, then head outside for a turn at the sandbox or slide. In a bright, full-size storybook full of familiar scenes, this child-friendly look at a day in the life of a preschooler is one that newcomers and seasoned pros alike will be happy to share."

• As a classroom sorting activity, gather pictures of children doing every day activities. On chart paper, make a YES side (with a smiley face or thumbs up), and a NO side (with a sad face or thumbs down). Allow children to help sort the pictures according to what they DO in school and what they DO NOT do in school. For example: In school, we can paint,  take a nap, build with blocks, eat lunch, etc. We do NOT take a bath, go to bed, go shopping, etc in school. Children can glue the pictures onto chart paper during circle time or during a small group activity.
