Kindergarten educators: it’s okay if we’re still establishing routines and getting to know our kids (like our 7 3yos!) and haven’t jumped 100% into all of the amazing literacy learning that will soon come. We want to get the start-up right so *effective* instruction can follow!

Week 3 of the First 20 Days of Kindergarten Focuses on PLAY - check out this section. docs.google.com/document/d/1tM…
