The best and most interesting PreK-relevant material I've been reading:
* Early Ed Watch Blog on Head Start and school readiness (part of a series)
* Advice for parents on finding a play-based preschool
* From Slate, advice on working on changing kids behaviors
* Great list for any parents or early educators: anti-bias curriculum books for PreK and Kindergarten students. Teaching for Change is an amazing organization that works to support educators and be explicit about race, gender, sexuality, etc, so as to break down stereotypes.
* Haven't checked out this movie clip yet, but interesting premise: "Two Angry Moms" take on school lunches
* Really important but disturbing article. I as an educator often don't think of my students as being capable of depression, but read this to be more aware.
* I do like the message (but not the tone) of the article: talk to your kids, all the time, all the time, all the time. They learn vocabulary, context and nuance.
