My Project

Our prekindergarten students come to school each day ready to learn and have fun. They learn and play using a play based curriculum that teaches them the foundational math and literacy skills they will need for success when they reach kindergarten. Much of their learning takes place in our 7 learning centers; toys and games, dramatic play, discovery, sand and water, library, art, and blocks. Each of these centers has its own color associated with it to help students know where they and materials belong.

The color copied paper will be used to print math and literacy games and activities to color coordinate with the center's color.

The blue copy paper will be used for our toys and games center. The yellow paper will be used for our sand and water center. The green paper will be used for our discovery center. The orange paper will be used for dramatic play. The pink will be used for our block center. The purple will be used for art center. And the red will be used for library. With the laminating sheets, we will be able to laminate all the materials to make them durable and able to use year after year.
