​RESOURCES FOR FAMILIES AT HOME

We miss you!  The teachers and staff at PTS are all busy connecting with you via our private FaceBook group, Zoom, snail mail, and FaceTime to name just a few of our outreach platforms.  We are also preparing lesson plans and working on our continuing education.  To help you during this crazy time, we have compiled some resources to help you cope and hopefully, continue to thrive.  We will continually update, so check back often!

TEACHER CONNECTIONS

Visit our Roll Call page to hear stories, a hello, sing a song, or do activities with your favorite teachers and staff.

EXTENDING LEARNING FROM SCHOOL TO HOME

There are many games, activities, and songs to share with your children, but it can often be difficult to come up with an idea right when you need one.  To help you during this extended time together, we have compiled the following list of resources, in no particular order.  As with all of our resources these days, this list will be evolving, so check back periodically for additional ideas.

DAILY CHALLENGE

SAMPLE DAILY SCHEDULES

For preschoolers, writing can include "writing" notes to family and friends which they dictate and you write, creating stories together, illustrating a story...  The important thing is that your child choose the activity.  Authentic writing comes from writing with a purpose as seen by your preschooler, not writing for the sake of writing.  As they put crayon to paper or watch you write, they will begin to understand that the written word represents a method of communication.  The marks they make on a page (prewriting) are just as important and developmentally appropriate.  There is no need for them to write actual letters unless they are interested in doing so.

Math facts for preschools can include counting how many steps it takes to get from one room to another.  How many body lengths does it take to cross the living room?  Does it take a different amount for the child than the parent?  I wonder why.  How many jumps from one bedroom to another?  How many blocks tall is the couch?  How about the kitchen counter?  How many ways can you sort the snacks in the pantry?  How can the laundry be sorted?  How can the socks be grouped?
