My Project

Kindergarten students are enthusiastic learners who love to play! We begin each day with morning tubs which include activities such as play-doh, magnatiles, building blocks, and other learning activities. This allows my students to ease into the school day without the pressure of having to "work" as soon as they get in the classroom.

With more options for math and language arts puzzles, as well as pattern blocks activities, my students will be able to learn even more through their morning play.

These types of activities are fun and engaging for 5-year-olds. Since my students can complete the activities independently, it helps them develop self-confidence and perseverance while having fun!
