Just in time for Presidents day, this week we’re learning about the Presidents. I love that some weeks we focus more on geography and physical science, while others we lean more towards government and history.

What is a president – I really like this resource, but it’s a little too advanced for preschoolers. I did take the page talking about holiday, country, President, leader etc.. And will use it to intro the President’s Day unit – I will save the resource for future years.
