Goal

My students will discover new experiences through creative and real life play. Active play is very important for children. Discovering how things work, talking with others about what they think, working together to figure things out, and developing social skills is foundational to building a love of learning. 

What will be done with my students

The students will have time to explore each of the activities that I have carefully chosen for their learning experiences. The Pet Vet Clinic will allow a group of my students to work together to solve problems that their pet may have. The liquid floor tiles will fascinate them as to how colorful liquids change and flow and what happens next. This activity will lead to my students applying what they learn and creating their own water filled mystery! Sequencing is always fun as the students learn what comes first and what comes next in the Create a Burger Stacker. Everyone loves moving vehicles around the town as they learn how to get from one place to the next. And the science viewers are a great way for the students to experience the wonder of animals, insects and sea life. Our whole school is studying sea life so this will be a wonderful opportunity for my Pre-K students to share with their older buddy classmates. The students will be able to learn the alphabet with a fun, engaging puppet every week. Students will be able to participate in puppet theater as a class and present it to other classes. Our Jesus puppet will be an integral part of our bible time. The easel will be used in our art center as a means of creative exploration.
