My Project

We are a classroom of energetic and curious pre-kindergartners. My students are creative and interested in everything! Every material that we use has a learning purpose.

Hands-on materials are the optimal way for our young learners to make sense of their world.

Mini books are perfect for learning how to be an author. Pom Poms and buttons are amazing counting tools. Play dough manipulatives are a great way to strengthen small motor skills.

Alphabet picture stickers and the All About Letters Pocket Chart are wonderful concrete items to help children learn to recognize and name the letters.
