Curriculum Night at Kavya's school

Today I went for Curriculum Night at Kavya's School. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was really good. Her teachers had basically laid out the toys/tools and different activities that they will be using during the entire year for learning. This included different activities/tools provided by 'HandWriting without tears', easy reading books, coloring/learning sheets, etc. The teachers explained how they would use those to teach the kids. The goal is to have the kids write the upper case letters clearly by the end of this school year.

It feels good to know what Kavya is going to be learning throughout the year and how. It also gives us an idea about what we should work on at home.

Recently, I bought an activity workbook for her that she loves doing. It has activities like matching, spotting the difference, connecting the dots, finding the right path, coloring based on the marked number or color names, tracing, etc.

It is fun to watch her grow and learn new things.. but it is also scary in a strange way..
