This box set makes even our littlest learners able and eager to learn. Simple, colorful workbook pages allow students to trace letters, follow lines, recognize colors, shapes, numbers, and letters. Each perforated workbook page will clearly identify, in the upper corner, what skill is being covered. The teacher’s book, provided in this set, will have helpful teacher notes on each skill, what the activity is helping with, and why it is important, along with material lists and lesson plans. Just enough material to introduce skills and preschool expectations to young minds. ~Rebecca
