My Project

Our pre-k class is learning about buildings this month. The sensory sand table will change into a construction zone. Students will pretend to build with the kinetic sand and accessories in this kit. We are also learning our letters and sounds. It is important to make it fun. The light table will be used for this with spring letter activities from Teachers Pay Teachers. We will need the translucent letters to support these fun activities. The translucent bugs will also be used at the light table. They will encourage sorting and forming patterns. Finally, the cleaning supplies are a must in our pre k classroom where we strive to keep everyone healthy!
