My Project

I am so excited for a new school year with new Kindergarten students. I want to provide them with opportunities to explore sensory play during free time and or a morning activity when they get to school. Sensory play is important for development and encourages learning through exploration, curiosity, problem solving, and creativity!

I also added in a couple books I'd like to read with my class throughout the year.

Two of the books will be used in the first week of school and the other in the last week of school. Thanks for supporting our classroom!
