My Project

Our 3 year olds are some of the most amazing kids you will ever meet. Despite some of the challenges they face, their love for learning and creativity always shines through. Our art center is one of the most popular centers because it allows students the freedom to design anything they can imagine.

Construction paper is a basic supply for any preschool classroom and art center.

Students can use the construction paper to cut and paste designs or draw pictures on it. We also use colored construction paper in each of our 8 centers so students can draw and write at their leisure while they are playing in each center. This construction paper will go such a long way to to support students creativity and writing skills.
