My Project

My students LOVE to learn! They love to explore and hands-on activities are their favorite. Using light tables or light pads is a great way to enhance students learning! They are so engaging especially for students in PreK. There are so many skills that are practiced using these fun tools! We will be building with blocks, making patterns, counting objects and exploring shapes, numbers and letters.

My students will be working on their fine motor and pre-writing skills along with numeral, letter color and shape recognition, patterning, spacial awareness and problem solving.

This is a unique and fun way to learn all of these super important skills!
