First Week of Preschool

She has been asking about preschool for months so we were both happy when it was finally time.  We are doing a preschool co-op with four other families in our neighborhood this year.  We rotate hosting and planning the lessons from the online curriculum we are following and this first week was my turn.  I loved being able to plan lessons again and get into teacher mode.
Coincidently we have all girls in our group and they are a fun group.
This week we focused on the number zero, the colors black, blue and white, the story of the creation, and the book "The Five Little Ducks".
Some of our activities included:
