My Project

I want to create a strong love for literacy in my classroom. We would use “The Cow that Went Oink Activity Set” and the props to create an engaging story for my PreK class. It’s important they love books from an early age. By reading stories with visuals they will grow to love books and it will keep them engaged throughout the entire lesson. Keeping kids interested in books and reading is critical for success.

The maze items are perfect for helping the kids learn to trace.

Teaching them tracing concepts early on is beneficial and crucial to help emerge their handwriting skills.
