My Project

My students are excitable, loving 3 year-olds. They live in a high poverty and transient military area. Our public prekindergarten program is specifically designed and funded for children who are at risk.

The award winning, educational game will help to develop pre-reading skill and early literacy skills, in a fun and interactive way.

This will involve the entire family, as everyone can partake in this activity.

Family involvement and interest in a child’s learning, solidifies the fact that their learning is important.

Pre-readers will love this exciting and active game. They will want to play again and again, and become encouraged as they notice their skills developing. So much learning taking place by having fun with their families!

This is a perfect activity to encourage spending time together.
