SENSORY TABLES
Tactile experiences are provided in the sand and water tables. We use our senses and a variety
of wet and dry materials to sift, pour, measure, and stir.
ART
We provide materials for children to use creatively. We encourage children’s free
expression at the easel, art and clay tables.
MUSIC We sing songs, learn finger plays and listen to a wide variety of multi cultural music and nature sounds. MOVEMENT
Movement experiences foster creativity and hone gross motor skills. We can fly like a bird or move like a tree
in the wind! WOOD WORKING TABLE The children begin learning the use of safety equipment and real tools. With adult supervision, they create a variety of items.
MATH CENTER Hands on math activities include matching, classifying, patterning, sorting and counting real items. Teacher
made board games encourage group cooperation and sharing. MANIPULATIVE CENTER Includes puzzles and other activities to encourage fine motor skills.

Both fiction and non-fiction books are provided and are always age appropriate.
Children also listen to stories, “read” independently in the cozy corner or share books with a friend. Dictation
enables children to make the connection between the spoken and written word. |
