My Project

My students love to touch and explore the world.

Planting grass in our classroom will give them a tactile experience from beginning to end.

Building students' sensory experiences is something we focus on a lot in Pre-K. We give students experiences in touch and feel to build their sensory and tactile abilities.

My students crave the ability to get their hands on all kinds of sensory materials. The feel of water, sand, seeds, and beans fulfills this need for my students. Adding an academic component to this experience is a win.

We will feel. We will learn. And we will grow!

Mrs. Terrell
Grades PreK-2
