My Project

My students are amazing children and they are learning how to celebrate their diversity and differences in our pre-k classroom. My goal is that by having diverse toys and materials in our classroom, my students will be able to recognize, learn about, and appreciate different cultures. We will learn about different ethnic food, music, and clothing. We will also be more aware of children with disabilities by getting a wheelchair for our dolls in our dramatic play center. My students are extremely special to me and to each other. We celebrate what makes us different and learn from one another!
