My Project

I love that my students are enthusiastic about learning! Preschoolers are so curious in nature; they want to understand how the world works. Preschool is all about learning through play and giving students the opportunity to take on roles. Play gives students the ability to be scientists, artists, teachers and inventors. There are so many benefits of dramatic play in the classroom including: engaging imagination, developing self- regulation skills, supporting language development and practicing problem solving skills.

In the words of renowned Psychologist, "Play is the work of childhood" Jean Piaget
