My students just turned three years old. I am piloting a three-year-old half-day program in an inner-city low-income school.
The children are excited and ready to learn.
Most of the students I serve are English Language Learners and will be in a bilingual program.
The mission of this program is to teach children English and sustain their Spanish speaking skills. Starting early will give them a head start on their educational journey. This will enable them to have many opportunities in their futures, but also facilitate educational success.
My Project
My three year old students in a variety of accessories to maximize their block play. They need a variety of vehicles, people, and small wooden blocks in a variety of colors and sizes.
Having these materials will help my students discover that they have many ideas and create something new from a variety of blocks.
For a three year old, it is important to have a place where they can create on their own or with others. The block center does just that for them.
They will also develop their math and science skills because in creating something new they will have to make many predictions.
