My Project

I love that my students enjoy coming to school to see their friends and teachers! They are learning to be more independent and make friends in the classroom. During our free play learning centers, students are able to organize their own play activities and interact with their peers- all while learning within our preschool classroom. We would like to add items to our centers, such as a sensory table with tools, microscope, pretend blender, and outdoor balls.

Our new table with tools will allow students to have more ways to explore different textures and learn using different ways to explore the materials in the table.

The microscope and live plant would entice more students to choose this center. The blender would help students learn about healthy foods and enhance their pretend play. Lastly, the outdoor balls will help students become more active on the playground and to promote their physical development as well.
