My Students

My preschool class services 3 to 5-year-olds of which the majority have special needs. The population is diverse in their learning and understanding so students are always modeling skills other students might need. It is a class of teachers!

My Project

The more children are exposed to a concept, the more familiarity is formed until it becomes built into their brain. After familiarity will come understanding and exploring. I want to build this familiarity with letters and sounds by integrating letters into every station my students use throughout our time together.

I want letters to be on the wall, on the blocks, in the sensory bin, on the light-up table, and in dramatic play centers.

Letter names and sounds will no longer be a file buried somewhere in kids' brains, but a familiar friend they see at school and can find at home.
