My Project

My preschoolers arrive at various times of the day and need independent learning opportunities as we wait for all children to arrive and be ready to learn. Tub tasks provide a great opportunity for individual work time, as well as many other skills. These manipulatives and activities will help my students become more independent during this time of the school day.

My preschool students are working on becoming independent learners.

These manipulatives and fine motor activities will help my students to work independently, while creatively learning during individual work time.
