My Project

We have worked so hard, all year long and we really want to keep the fun and learning going during the summer months! I want to keep my preschoolers busy during the summer, so they will be prepared for Kindergarten. I would like for each child to have dry erase markers to use with their dry erase boards, stackable crayons and Play-Doh for encouraging creativity, imagination and strengthening fine motor and pre-writing skills!

Continuing the learning during summer months will help provide some structure to children's summer experiences, making it more likely that they will stay engaged and focused and out of trouble.

It also keeps their academic skills polished and in some cases, makes it possible for them to get ahead! Help me keep my students learning and busy in an engaging way this summer!
