Silver Buttons Lesson 3

Thank you for your enthusiastic participation in class! When you enjoy class activities you issue a safe, non-threatening invitation for your child to also participate.
Even if your child is reserved and hesitant to fully engage in class, they are learning. Continue to encourage participation (but never force/bribe) and listen to the music often at home. Your example demonstrates how much fun making music can be!

Understanding shape is foundational to cognitive development because shape is a primary source that infants and toddlers use to identify the objects around them. Eventually children will utilize this same cognitive process to observe, compare and discuss all they see and encounter.

Optional home fun activity: Color and cut out the shapes on page 29 of your workbook
(Remember, these activities are optional but can be a great bonding experience to do with your child during the week.)

For my convenience, I have preloaded content for the whole semester. I will update each future post with specific time-sensitive info before I send the link each week. If you choose to read ahead you might see details that don’t apply to your child’s class. For this reason I do not recommend reading ahead. Thank you!
