My Project

I teach an integrated preschool classroom where more than 50% of the students have delays in speech, adaptive, social emotional, and cognitive areas.

In preschool we introduce the students to phonics, math, and cooperative play.

The magnetic numbers, puppets, and letters that I have requested will promote cooperative play the students are having fun manipulating the toys and using their imagination.

These toys will help my students develop speech, partner play, phonics, and math skills. Music is a big part of our whole group activities, and puppets are a great way to encourage students to participate in whole group as well as interact with us.
