My Project

Teaching kindergarten comes with many joys, opportunities, and new learning for our scholars. With kindergarten being most of my students' first experiences in school getting to play with other students and using their imaginations is always one of their favorite times of the day.

The toy animals will help encourage the use of their imaginations and creativity.

They can also be incorporated into our science unit where students can sort the animals in different ways (covering and habitat), and compare and contrast the animals. Playing with the animals will also help improve their language skills all while they are having fun.
