My Project

Learning is taking place through play for pre-k students. With high quality materials and continuous play opportunities, my students are building on the knowledge they will need to be lifelong learners. They are strengthening their cognitive skills by solving problems using math manipulatives or exploring and understanding how and why things work. Their building on their motor skills through balancing, designing and building structures with blocks, manipulating and exploring fine motor activities and learning how to write letters and numbers. It is very important for children to have these learning opportunities.

With these materials, I will provide my students with opportunities that enrich their social, emotional, cognitive, literacy, physical, and language development.

They will be able to interact through play while learning skills that are needed to be successful students and successful members of society.
