My Project

Pre-K students learn through play and exploration. These materials will help my Pre-K students learn and explore in a unique yet fun way.

This year, I am teaching through the Reggio Emilia approach where lessons are driven by student interest.

We use natural materials and promote neutral, calming classroom materials, so student work can pop. My students thrive with a calm and neutral classroom filled with fun sensory materials. These sensory materials are a great addition to my beautiful cozy corner.

By adding these materials to my classroom, my students will thrive.
