This materials will enhance the library and interest areas in the classroom for my students to engage and learn. The visual timers in all three small group tables will help them transition. The math counting links will provide an interactive way to introduce numeracy concepts. They will use the printed number cards to practice number recognition. They will develop their fine motor skills and practice learning their colors as they link with their hands. The magna tile set will help reinforce their shape recognition by giving them visual, tangible shapes to explore as they count the sides on each shape. It will also help expand their vocabulary by using and visualizing comparative words as they connect "a big square" with a "small square" and use their imagination to build and connect the geometric shapes. This project will foster social emotional development through interactions with each other as they work in small groups, learn and take pride sharing their creations. The read along stories will build on literacy skills through singing the stories and provide a great opportunity for them to listen to the story with a partner. The letters in the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom will make learning their letters fun and provide hands on opportunities as they follow along placing the letter on the tree as the story is read to them. The play doh will help develop their fine motor skills and provide a fun sensory experience as they feel the texture, roll, cut, learn colors, and making endless creations using their imagination. The laminating sheets will help me provide them with the daily support that they need as I create visuals to teach language and simple concepts. I laminate all kinds of pictures including daily schedules, sequencing of stories and song cards.
