My Students

We are a class filled with young children who bring their different and similar experiences and stories into our community! We are curious about the world around us and we are so eager to explore every part of it together. As we wonder, we are working together on piecing our ideas and questions to form our inquiry study. Our children's interests, questions, and observations interweave together to guide us on our journey of wondering.

We are always on the hunt for materials to further our inquiry studies as we partner with our families, community, and the world around us.

We may be small, but we are mighty in our play and exploration!

My Project

We want to create! We love to tell and share stories, build with our imaginations, and engage in conversation with one another as we play and build. Our Table Toys center has become a hub of exploration as we utilize small parts to create communities and their members. We long to build more small homes, villages, towns, and cities and fill them up with the stories of all people and animals. Wooden materials will provide our children with open-ended opportunities to build and interact with together.

As we create together, our children will continue to grow as individuals who share their worlds and become little humans who gain a deeper understanding of the world beyond Brooklyn, NY!
