• Promoting Creativity at Home One Lego Piece at a Time!

  Funded Oct 3, 2018

  The legos are used during meaningful play and are an essential part of student's experience. Students work together to build with legos to enhance student's creativity, build peer to peer relationships, and strengthen fine motor skills. During these interactions, I encourage students to talk about their structures. As a result, students build language skills. My English Language Learners work alongside other child to acquire the new language. Students with special needs are provided with opportunities to work on their structures and revisit them at their leisure. All the students are given opportunities to create and build throughout the day. As a result, students are often seen inviting other students to join in play. Going forward I hope to utilize these legos to during math and science lessons.”

• A Listening Center Enhances Comprehension Skills

  Funded Jul 26, 2018

  A listening center in preschool provides young learners an opportunity to engage in stories and a love of books. Students visit the listening center independently throughout the day. The stories come to life as they listen to the story and enjoy the books simultaneously. They visit the center during meaningful play time and often gather in small groups to talk about the events in the stories. As a result, all my students are given the opportunity to love storytelling. Thanks again for helping me enhance my students learning. I am forever grateful.”
