    In Kindergarten, I remember learning to read from black and white picture books. They were printed onto paper. The one I remember the most is about a dog. I think it was called "See Spot Run".

  • When the switch flipped

    When the switch flipped
    During my time as a preschool teacher, I used to read "No, David." by David Shannon to my two year old kids.
    A few years later, when I was subbing in a Kindergarten classroom, one of my old students read that book to me. It was amazing to see one child's progress first hand.
