Dino and Me is a preschool series that embraces the love of literature and the joy of learning through a literature-based approach. It provides comprehensive integrated instruction with a special emphasis on developing communication, language and literacy skills. Each unit contains three literature selections – an informative reader, a Dino chant and a narrative reader, with a related value.
With Dino and Me students will:
develop literacy skills and concepts through songs, rhymes, finger plays, physical activities, stories and games
reinforce learning with manipulatives for open-ended activities like retelling stories and posing questions
acquire critical thinking skills and emotional intelligence through activities based around values
learn to listen socially: make eye contact, attend to the speaker, respond to what is said, and so on
learn in a language-rich environment, enhancing children’s opportunities to take risks and fostering interpersonal skills
learn the concepts of print, developing letter formation and emergent writing
