My Project

I will be moving to Pre K this year!! Our administration has decided that students need a fun and engaging learning experience for their first year in school. They have selected me to create a learning environment to promote motor skills along with social skills. Young students learn better by doing. I want a classroom that students can play and learn all at the same time. I also need supplies for more of specific skills in centers. I create many hands on learning centers but it requires a lot of time and a lot of supplies! I have the time but I need help with the supplies. Anything you can do to help us create this environment would be so greatly appreciated!!
