Winter 2019 Preschool Storytime: Week One 1-8-19

Preschool storytime is back!  Woohoo!  Trying out some new songs this time around, and I am using a series of books by Scholastic called StoryPlay.  They are regular picture books, but have little bubbles with questions to ask during the story.  I want to highlight this series for parents and caregivers to show that dialogic reading can be super simple.  These books can give them examples and help them move on to other titles.
